I am setting up an african river tank..55 gallons..it is almost done...water and fake plants(the clothe soft silk type)...with river pebble bed (small gravel size..smooth), plenty of mopani drift wood for shelter are all in. In it i am putting in an black african knife fish....elephant nose or maybe a baby whale, and an african congo leaf fish and an african butterfly....and maybe a senegal.. but these fish will mostly hide during the day...as there is plenty of dirftwood caves and plant cover..
What i want to ask you guys..is..are there any peaceful cichilds that would com with these fish...any colorful ones?...and what about spiny eels..i heard there are african spiny eels...but i can't find any...how aggressive are they?...what is their max size..
i know i am asking alot...but i would really like to keep this tank freshwater african..and i love the african black knife.
