Recommend Some Midwater Fish

[Gill]

So today, I am giving away alot of fish, so that i can concentrate on the Endlers.

But the tank will look Very Empty without the Sailfin Mollies and Platties.

I am thinking of Adding Threadfin Rainbows again as they are midwater swimmers.

The Endlers stay at the top.

Anyone recommend something Endler Freindly, Bearing in mind that this is the uk and 2 very good LFS/LPS' have closed down where I live.
And the Out of towners are hiking there prices now cause they can. (People have no choice now but to travel to them for fish).

for example Threadfins in Cov 1pound each - threadfins out of town up to 5 pounds each.

Wouldn't mind Danio Choprae's
I'm thinking Cherry barbs wold blend into the plants to much, like the Ember tetras

10 Blue Neons could be nice.

never had luck with Neons, but thanks for the recommend.

In that case something like Pentazona Barbs might be a good option.

nah, don't like those.

i think i'll try out some WCMM'S untill Threadfins come in.

Fair enough. There isnt really a huge selection for mid level. Non fin nippers

Pentazona's are great, except they tend to hide a bit, and like to hang around amongst the plants generally Mine are getting a bit more confident now though.

Pygmy corys Corydoras pygmaeus are mid swimmers, one of very few mid swimming cat fish. Would probably fit into your tank well

I Would Love them, But the only Shop that ever got them in has closed down.
And the nearest LFS that sells them is Nr Coleshill in Nether Whitacre. A bit far to go for 1 fish.
I might see if I can get some though.

I don't have the money to go that far in petrol ATM, too much of a waste. I only got sick pay as i've been off work over a month.
