55 Gal suggestions

[zeta054]

I have a 55 gal planted with cories, ottos, neons , rasboras, and im looking for a centerpiece fish. I want something that gets big but obviously not too big for the tank. I already had an angel and want somthing different and new. Thanks!

Discus and rainbows

The fish mentioned are unlikely to survive the warm temperature especially neons so discus are not the option here. How about pearl gouramis? Have you ever thought of getting Pomacea bridgesii for centerpiece inverts?

festivum are an interesting option IMO...very graceful in appearance and not as common as angels

I think the festivum is a big plant eater though. Its in the cichlid family isn't it. My tank was full of plants till I went with cichlids. Now I have ugly plastic plants.

Lou, try Java ferns and anubias if you haven't yet.

blue rams? do they eat plants a nice gourami?

Silver Dollars would fill the gap nicely. They might nibble on your plants though.
