120Gal tank need a Bottom Dwelling fish , please help me .

[djarmstrong]

I really would like Bottom Dwelling fish for my 120Gal 4x2x2Foot tank .

Was thinking on getting a Ray but my tank a little too small for one .

I would like some thing which wont get too big but
saying that i dont want anything too small , maybe some about 10/ 12inch fully grown ( some which can say inthe tank for life ) .

Any ideas ? please post .

Tank - 120Gal - 4x2x2Foot with a sand bottom , filtered by 1 Fx5 ( could be getting another Fx5 soon tho for the tank not sure yet ) . Current fish and which will be staying in the tank are 1x 9inch Black belt Cichlid , 1x 8inch Jaguar Cichlid and 1x 6inch Jack Dempsy , ( thinking about getting a few Silver Dollors not sure yet for the tank ) . There are all quite mellow fish with very little Aggro' .

Marbled Goby?

 

[zenyfish]

Doradidae, Loricariidae, Pimelodidae, or Pseudopimelodidae ... any preference among these family of catfish? Those are where I would look.

red tail catfish - 3+ feet.
stripes raphael - okay
pictus catfish - okay
bichir - okay
mud puppy - would get beaten up with his other fish
everything else listed - would get eaten or killed. srsly.

not true some crayfish you can get biger that a foot.


red tails if you dont feed em much will be fine for many years.

mud puppys also you can buy a foot long if you go to the right places...

or you can try your hand at hand fishing for the mud pups that are big.

Starving a fish to keep it small is cruel, and will eventually kill it.
You know if you don't feed your kids they wont grow either, and that way you don't have to buy new shoes...
Seriously, why even suggest that.

starving him wont do much he will start tanking out tank mates andd these will take the pellets of the top aswell!
