Looking for a tankmate for my poly's.

I said Pike CHARACINS, i am talking about fish like Spotted/Striped Pike Characin.
Giant Danio's you say, i am more looking for a single/exotic maybe kind of fish.

pike characins can be weaned off live.
a shoal of them really is a site to behold...

archers rainbows and kili fish are cool gars are good but yet again grow too large I would personally go with archers there really cool epically to feed

 

[Jakob]

I actually thought about Ctenopoma, i will just have too think this all through, whats available etc etc.

Rox: Im not in the situation to be weaning fish off live food, i am to lazy for that. It was hard to get my Dat off live so i drew a line.

I'm pretty sure Archers are brackish water fish.

 

[Jakob]

Archers can easily be kept in freshwater with NO problems, just hard to get over here.

 

[Stump]

Where is this info coming from? I've never heard such a thing...



edit: apparently a few kinds of Archers "occur" in freshwater, meaning that they can tolerate it... I didn't even know that. I thought it would be the equivalent of someone tossing a Mono into their FW tank.

 

[Jakob]

Mono's and archers can most of the time be kept in fresh water.

 

[Jakob]

These information come from icelandic fish keepers that know they're stuff.

y no cichlids a oscar would be cool in that tank also u have a con

 

[Jakob]

I know about the con and the festae, an oscar would not be cool in that tank because he will propably eat some of the smaller poly's.
