Something Interesting

[FlyJumper]

I'm looking for a more unusual fish to add to my 40g community (kind of_) tank,

Currently in the tank I have:
1 fire dwarf gourami,
6 (long-finned) Zeebra Danios
1 Dojo Loach
1 Red-tailed shark
2 (wag) Plattys

I was thinking of killifish but there usually in single species tanks, so that worries me.... also that they are harder to feed.

A killifish is my idea of exotic, and unusual fish..... There's my taste of what I like so now I'm open to suggestions.

Hows the dojo doing in tropical temps?

Hows the dojo doing in tropical temps?

I was a bit worried about the dojo too, although he does quite nice in there. The temp. is around 76 F. He's very active all the time and I believe he's doing fine.

I didn't intend to have the dojo, it was my friends and he offered it to me, instead of giving it to the fish store.

Overall he's doing fine.

What about a blue ram?

What about a blue ram?

Yes, I have considered them too, could I have a pair, or maybe apistos?

would I have to worry about RTS with the ram, and maybe the red-tail?

Dont worry about the dojo, i have some myself. BUT, dojos like to have company of their own species, so i suggest you get atleast 1 more dojo loach. The more you have, the more active they become.

I wouldn't expect my dojo to get any more active.... He's constantly swimming about the aquarium 24/7 (literally), but I will consider to invest in maybe 1 or 2 more dojos.


So how about the rams?

Well forget the active part since it alrdy active, they are very playful with each other. Just go buy a friend or two. My dojo's piss me off... When i bought my first one, he was always out and active. 2 months later i bought a really nice looking one that was hiding. Now since the 2nd always hides and is extremely skittish of me, my first one now hides and is very skittish. Advice: Buy the dojo's that are out and not hiding...
