I’m moving my fish from a 75 to a 120 and currently have a Delhezi and 2 Senegal bichirs, 1 Ctenopoma, 1 warmouth, 1 belly crawler pike and a Lima/elongatus (not sure which) shovelnose. All about 4-6”. I’m thinking of adding one more fish, preferably something that stays in the upper part of the water column since everything now takes the bottom up to the middle . My filtration is 2 large canisters and 2 bio wheel 350s and a 300gph power head on a large sponge filter
Any ideas are appreciated
 
Butterfly fish. Full grown Congo tetras or other deep body tetras.
Thanks, do those get large enough for the Warmouth or shovel nose not to see as food? A butterflyfish is on I’ve been considering, but I thought they were too small
 
Id worry about most of what you have in there with the shovelnose tbh. I had to google warmouth also tbh. But yeah they may be eaten.

Ya, I’m waiting to see if the shovel nose is a Lima or elongatus, if it gets much over 12-13” I’ll move it.
 
Can those live in fresh? I thought they were brackish
I was looking at clouded archers and believe they are fully fresh. Though now I have to go double check...I didn’t look too much at them bc I didn’t get them haha

edit* I checked and they are a true freshwater

Lol it’s cool, I like archers, good idea if they are fresh
