You could.do rose line sharks but you will need a bigger tank eventually

I don't think iowa has Harlequin rasboras. They really look cool, wish I could find them

What about boesemani rainbows?

Petsmart has harlequin rasboras, they list them as rasbora heteromorpha though the official Latin name is Trigonostigma heteromorpha. Petsmart lists several Iowa locations, including Ankeny (Des Moines).

 

[MCUnderwood]

Right but that doesn't mean they carry that fish

I wouldn't recommend black skirts, my aquarium buddies and I haven't had 'the best' experience with them...

+1 on the harlequin rasboras. Cant imagine that nobody in your area has them. One of most common fish you can find

 

[MCUnderwood]

Ok sorry guys. Idk if pet smart has them of not but I went to a locally owned fish store and they had them. I picked up 5 Harlequin rasboras and another guppy. I really appreciate everybody's input. I've never seen those fish anywhere before and either store doesn't list them on their website

Petsmart has them
In the website they are called rasbora heteromorphia danio

 

[MCUnderwood]

Ok I overlooked it then. Thanks for the help all. Sounds like everyone likes the rasboras

 

[MCUnderwood]

New fishes!

I've heard that neons will get eaten by angel fish once the angel is big enough. You might have success with rummy nose tetras
They're bigger than neons and are one of the tightest schooling fishes out there.

 

[MCUnderwood]

These aren't neons... I don't think anyway. They are Harlequin rasboras. My angel is pretty small yes so I am hoping they will get bigger at the same time and have no problems .

It's a rummy nose tetra

 

[MCUnderwood]

Right you were talking about neons getting eaten by angelfish though

 

[MCUnderwood]

Never mind, I was assuming you were referring to previous posts. Sorry about that. Thanks for the advice

 

[ClearVision94]

Lol it's ok. I didn't read the previous posts. Just the top one lol

 

[pollex.jaypee]

Uhm, don't you want to increase your cories? Try adding one more

 

[Goldfish loach boy]

The angel will eat no tetras, I've had a school if 20 neon tetras and an angelfish together and it went fine
Add them if you wish
