Well, I recently got another 20 gallong high tank given to me and somehow found room in my tiny aprtment for it. After debating what to do with the tank I decided I want some type of predator fish or something pretty aggresive for this tank. I know a 20g isnt anywhere near monster status but my situation limits my tank size at the moment. (honestly I dont know how i squeezed this tank in my place lol)

Anyways I love the look of the peacock gudgeon and think it would make a prefect candidate but I cant find one anywhere. Any other ideas on what fish I could put in this tank?
 
Maybe a butterfly fish with some guppies to provide fry as feeders, or perhaps a spotted climbing perch as a single specimen. They get to be 7-8" but if by themselves it might work.

Those exodons and butterfly's seem pretty cool the juvinile Exodons are supposed to have great coloring too. Gonna stop by the LFS on the way home and see what I can pick up. :)

Thanks
 
Let us know what you end up picking out. I'm intrested in what you are going to get for such a small tank.

id put a few kribs in there.
 
Phago maculatus or Belonesox belizanus. You did say something small and predatory.
 
Hmm after looking at those Belonesox belizanus they seem like some evil little fish. :) Now if I could only find them.

I stopped at the LFS and they had nothing really. Ill have to hit the other one tomorrow.
