So what species should get for my 55 this will be the only fish besides a species of catfish so options are
1.TOR DOURONENSIS first pick is this one
2.Neolissochilus stracheyi second pick
3. Tor putitora pick 3

All three of those will get too big for a 55, especially the putitora.

Like in the those google photos, the 2nd one is a Neo
