Neon Rainbow

[worjackie]

I have in my Tank (125 Litres) 26 gallon

Ammonia 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 0.25
pH 7


4 Zebra Danio
10 Lemon Tetra
2 Bolivian Ram
3 Napo Corys
1 Red Tailed Black Shark

I would like to add Some Neon Rainbows 4 or 5 if possible then thats it.

anyone think I would be over stocked or do think this will be OK

Its a close one this. I would say no because Rainbows are active mid/top level swimmers and I think you might be getting too crowded. What are the dimensions of your tank?

I can see no problem adding preacox rainbows to your tank
I' also suggest increasing your danio school to 6

6 Danios? That wauld be great I love these little fellows

How many Neon rainbows would you suggest, with the curent stock arrangement.

4-5 as you suggested look great, but as with most fish
the bigger the group the better their colours (more fish to entice to mate, therfore better colours on each)
