cardinals and neons always seem to be the fish of choice with live plants. It's safe going, but with these nicely planted tanks, once in a while I'd like to se something new that fits in well.
Roseline sharks, albino senegal (would take a peaceful one who doesn't uproot too much) and maybe an african butterfly at the top. I mean, cardinals are beautiful, don;t get me wrong. but some change up contrasting fish would be nice.
edit: by the way- wouldn't hurt to get 4 more corries. they like to school. but awesome tank. That black substrate makes me think even more about mixing fine black gravel in with my white sand.
Agreed on the Cardinals.Added some rams that looks really nice.Butterfly fish (PRETTY ) will eat all my other fish and it looks freaky.I will wait till the tank have matured then see if any exotic fish are at my LFS.
