1 More Day

[jarcher1390]

its only one more day until i get my new 4 foot fish tankbut what to put in it

 

[Teelie]

At a guess: Fish.

 

[kris-b-]

Fish maybe?! only kidding!

What type interest you? Shoaling fish or pairs?

 

[corpse fish]

Don't know how they would work together, but different kinds of sharks would be cool!

 

[Ethos]

Turtles are kinda cool.... Yurp
But....There's alot of things you could do, and if you shose one, it'll be soo much easier to pick yor fish.
Examples:

Heavly Planted
Lightly Planted
Minimal
Rocky(Like African cichlids)
SW,
ect ect

You're not putting the fish inside the 4ft tank before cycling it right?

 

[jarcher1390]

Hi jarcher1390

Then you might want to consider getting a nice school of corys for the bottom. They are active a good bit of the time and interact with each other quite a lot. There are many different species to choose from, including a variety of colors and patterns, and eight or more would be a great addition to any peaceful tank.

 

[dgwebster]

a good selection of gouramis, corys and danios. personally Id also add glass catfish.

 

[Matty]

a massive school of neons

 

[dgwebster]

nah, cardinal tetras if any

4 foot doesn't tell us much. What are the rest of the dimensions.

Cories, Tetra of your taste and a non-agressive gourami(Like the Pearl, but not the Gold)

 

[jarcher1390]

[dgwebster]

48x18x18, a fairly common size here, though there is a chance it could have one of the dimensions at 15".
