40 gallon stocking assistance

[jackk-cavanagh]

I've recently just bought a 40g tank and was needing some stocking ideas. I don't want an ordinary fish you commonly see. If you have any ideas please let me know!

There are rare Corydoras on Aquabid.

Less common sometimes means fragile or special needs. Please research any suggestions before you buy. And consider a QT tank if you want WC fish.

I would do a big group of Dwarf Chain Loaches. But they are too busy for some fish.

An african butterfly fish or some bucktooth tetras would look interesting.

Here are a few ideas.


Gold Wonder Killies, they get 4"+ are beautiful and aggressive feeders. They will eat anything they can swallow.


Pike Livebearer 4" Males-8"-9" Females a mouth full of razor sharp teeth and an appearance that says don't even think about it. They eat feeder fish.


Red Claw Cherax 8"-12" of giant clawed crayfish-They can't catch fish either!
