hey guys,my 60 gal is jsut about rdy for some fish.its painted black on back and bottom and has a driftwood liek cave in middle.not sure wat to stock it with.got any ideas or suggestions?=)
 
I have a setup very similar to yours - 60g with the back painted black. I have Bichirs, Leopard Ctenopoma, a Butterfly fish, Aplle snails, and various livebearers. It's a pretty awesome setup. You should definitely look into Bichirs though! They are pretty cool fish that grow very quickly.
 
Brown/black background, some smooth round rocks and driftwoods and then some botiine loaches along with barbs, danios and rasboras.:) I realize it's a biased suggestion seeing as I like loaches.

not really.i have no clue=/maybe ill go to the lfs and look around

yeah just go look! lol don't impulse buy i regretted going the "community route" so think about all options :D
 
I agree! When you go to the store, take a paper and pen and write down the names of the ones you like. Then you can go home and research. That way, you get the fish you want instead of impulse-buying and having to find fish compatible with your impulse-buy.
 
yea i have a african tank in the living room.but i made up my mind guys,im gonna raise a small dovii im picking up tuesday from a fellow mfker
