I've come to realize that my current 20 long set up just isn't doing it anymore. It has become my let's-throw-this-random-plant-in-it-tank-because-I-have-no-where-else-to-put-it tank, and I'm not sure how much more I can stand it. So, I getting rid of the 30+ Endlers Livebearers and going to completely re-do it.
Originally, (before I did a bit more research) I was thinking tiger barbs because I've always loved them but have always had angelfish in my larger tanks. But I don't want to squish them in there because that is their minimum size tank. I was also thinking about cardinal tetras, but I plan on having them in my 110g tank and really would rather not have a repeat.
Now, I'm stuck. I want the fish to be spacious in this tank and I plan on spending a lot of time on plants in here.
So now I come to you all. Any suggestions on some fish for the tank?
Here are some of my thoughts on the stock:
I want to plant it, so no plant killers allowed
I have 6 Kuhlii loaches that I'm keeping in it
I want peaceful, community fish (but no more livebearers--please!)
I'm leaning towards a pair of larger fish or one somewhat larger school of smaller fish
I was thinking a pair of apistos or a school of lemon tetras or ember tetras or CPDs or I don't know.
Any opinions would be appreciated!!!
