Alright, so in my 75 I have an albino sen whom I'd say is at maybe the 8" mark and then I have my big guy, an endli, who has been at the 15inch mark for as long as I can remember (at least 2 or 3 years)
I know, I know, he really deserves to be in something with more width but I can't get a wider tank
in any event, he seems content in the tank and actually likes to explore, though he sticks mainly in this little corner of the tank even though there is a perfectly nice other 2 feet of the tank that he has decided does not exist in his world lol
anyways, this is a planted tank and I was wondering if there exists any sort of schooling fish that would be large enough so that the endli does not eat them or numerous or small enough where he just doesn't care to go after them
I realize this "perfect" little schooling fish probably doesn't exist but I figured I'd ask the experts
many moons ago I tried rainbows and they worked for a time but when one of them got sick my endli decided to acquire a taste for rainbows so those are a no go, however interestingly enough when i first set up the tank he was totally fine co-habbing with a little 2-inch electric blue jack dempsey that he never even so much as swam near (though the little guy would often go after the same food as the endli was so its not like the endli didn't have a chance to suck him up)
anyways, enough of my rambling for now, any suggestions?
