Tyrannosaurus Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 Hi everybody. I have a 250 liter tank with a JD (coming up 15 cm or so) a jewel cichlid, a synodontis (about 15 cm too) and a red tail shark. Here's my problem: the tank looks empty because all these fish are fairly retiring. You see the red tail shark every now and then, but other than that, it's hiding behind rocks central. Are there any fish that will be fast enough to avoid the JD, and also provide a bit of movement and color to the tank in the mid to top regions? It really does look as though I'm just running an empty tank 90% of the time, and I'd like to change that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malevolentsparkle Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 what kind of water you got in there? I far from an expert on your fish but have you you thought about large torpedo barbs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morcs Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 Silver $. even a pair will be good entertainment. they dont cost the earth either. I love them for their erratic behaviour. and when they get biggish they look pretty badass and paranha-esque Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrannosaurus Posted June 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 Hey, not sure what the question about water refers to, it's a tropical tank, does that help? Silver dollars? Thanks for the suggestion! I will look into them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
