Looking For Non-community Fish To Have In My Tropical Tank

[mullac51]

I have got a 90 litre tropical tank which is 24, 12, 16 inches ( i think thats how many litres it is) but Instead of buying community fish i would like to try something different. i would only like a couple of speices but i would like them to be fairly big. Maybe some decent sized fish, like maybe 15cm max or so but also wanted maybe like a little invert like a lobster or maybee some craps. also i didnt really want to keep any plants either. I know theres lots of fishes out there but i want to find some i really like =]

I was going to try tiger oscars but i research and realised that my tank isnt big enough for them

If you have any suggestions i would really like to here them.

Thanks =]

how about convict cichlids? prolific breeders, and the parenting skills are fascinating to watch. they dont get along well with other fish so be warned

It is a 76 litre tank, an invertabrate will be good in there like a shrimp, as they are entertaining. Get a cherry shrimp, however they could be too small as they dont that big however the bamboo shrimp or known as the fan shrimp is also a good shrimp to get as it grows over 2" (5cm). They are also entertaining in the tank and will not need feeding in the tank if you have other fish in there, as they eat all the particles of food around the tank. When they are used to the tank and are eating well, they turn a nice red and orangy colour with a white stripe on top from the head to tail which really stands out in the tank. 


WHich fish you got in the tank?

Fishless cycle please this takes around a month and involves adding amonia to the tank before fish read up on it and don't listen to the shop please
