African Butterfly? Don't know exactly how aggressive they are but they don't get too big so maybe you could have 2 or 3?


I know about these, but they seem kinda boring. I saw soem in an LFS and they seemed to just hang around the top not moving much. And I heard that if feeding them, if the food isnt in their face or drops below them slightly they wont eat it.

I might get some, but this is kind of a turn off.

Are these guys picky eaters? What max size do they reach?
No, they will feed on any type of pellet food once acclimatised, you can expect them to reach 8'' in size.
 
BGK in already huh? are you looking to upgrade in a couple of years? anyway, id go with discus as an oddball. dont see too many of those in regular tanks. good for plants too. or maybe an expensive plec?
