hi, I upgraded my community from a 10g to a 20g, and was wondering what fish (if any) i should add. I had thought about a molly or 2, but read they needed more in their school and brackish water. I would like some addtional color, or maybe a specimen like an eel or something. Thanks.

thanks. there are some cages to keep the koi away from the plants, so hopefully they can hide there. I am not entirely sure the babies are koi babies although this is the most likely scenario. We are surrounded by natural ponds w/native fish and minnows. No runoff can get into the pond, but...

the koi are 6-8" but the babies have apparently been in with them for some time. goldfish are 1-2". babies range from almost too small to see to about 1/2"

Thanks for the info on the rosy's. As to the beta, if you don't think that overcrowding would be a problem, I may try to introduce one and just keep an eye on the barbs, they tend to stick to themselves now. And if they did start nipping, I have a 1g tank I could temporarily house the beta in.

Hello all, I have a 10g tank that pret store employees say is already overcrowded, however all my fish have been happy and healthy for about one year. The tank is heavily planted, and has a bio-wheel. I do weekly changes of 10-15% and add a small amount of salt as needed. My godfather wants...
