Something For The Top...

[BadBadger]

Looking for something to take the top half of my tank. Its looking nice and busy at the bottom with the Kribs and tetras, but bare at the top. Any suggestions?

Cheers

some sort of danio?

 

[N0body Of The Goat]

Hatchets?
Fortail Blue Eye Rainbows? (Although I'd be a little concerned about their "torpedo shape" which will fit nicely in a juvenile/adult Angelfish)
Golden Wonder Killifish?
African Butterfly Fish? (But like above, would almost certainly prey on any fry that happen to hatch in the tank)

Silver Hatchets A shoal of 5 or so would look good.

Or alternatively a fish that i found out existed today is the Dadio - yes thats spelt correctly.

 

[BadBadger]

Dadio?!?!
Yeah maybe hatchets, but want something with a bit more colour.
As for the others, im going for an amazon type theme (despite the kribs)

Cheers for the suggestions

If your going for an Amazon theme then i can help - as i too am going for an amazon theme in my cichlid journal.

Red Shiners
Red Coral Pencilfish
Three-Lined Pencilfish
Common/Silver Hatchetfish
Many many SA Tetras out there too - to many to name

And yes, Dadio's. I thought it was a miss-spelling of Danio, however i'm informed it is actually a new fish very similar to the Danio. I saw some today at Maidenhead Aquatics in Northamptom - they look really nice.

The red coral pencilfish look nice, but angels will have em wont they?
Also like the red shiners. Just what im looking for to be honest: right size, nice colour and midwater dweller. But, "Origin: California, Colorado, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, and Wyoming, as well as parts of northen Mexico". I dont know if im going to be that strict

Keep the suggestions coming please

Cheers

AINT aint a word

 

[Big_eyes]

AINT aint a word

Hmmmm......... you're right, but then it is a colloquialism and a contraction originally used for "am not", but also used for "is not".

 

[SlyPolak]

It still AINT a word ...

 

[BadBadger]

Was just a joke for verminator but ok, 16 tetra.

And by the way, ain't is a word dictionary.com
