What New Fish?

[Ashers]

Hi all have a 20g, heavily planted, currently with 6 rummy nose tetras and 4 ottos. Looking for some new fish don't mind what kind but would like them to be peaceful, any suggestions?

Hmmm, a pair of Gourami's would work nice. Maybe Dwarf's or Honey's
Alternatively, A pair of Dwarf Cichlids. Like Bolivian Rams or some sort of Apistogramma.
Maybe a Betta? I keep one with Rummy's and have kept them with Oto's in the past

Do like them but not keen on the betta and also I have a high ph of 8 so just no really strict delicate fish also

Any more ideas?

What about a pair of Badis badis?

 

[Ashers]

Not too keen on them. How about a pair of angels? Thought they were a bit big really but what do you think?

 

[Biddles95]

you can't have 2 angels sorry
is your tank a tall tank? or lengthy?
also i dont suggest 2 angels in a small tank because of territory issues

I agree the angels are a no-no for such a size tank.

As a very peaceful small social community/semi-shoaling fish though i would really recommend Cherry Barbs. The males are cherry pink in colour while the females are brown and they love planted tank set ups. They're also very hardy easy little fish to keep b .

how about a trio of apistos?

 

[moochy13]

a small plec or a few cories ? i keep rams and apistos in 7.4 pH water, no problems so far.

I did think it was a bit small for angels but I just wanted to see what you guys though. To be honest they are the only cichlids I like. I have been looking at cherry barbs and I like themso I think I will be getting some cherries. What is the minimum number for them do you think?
Thanks guys
