i want some dither fish if possible ie siver dollars/etc etc

thanks in advance mark.
 
I highly recommend leaf fish as tank mates though you may need to find some mature ones.
 
:iagree: Red Hooks work well. I have 8 in with mine and they look great:)
 
IMO your tank is too small for Red hooks or SD. They probably just bang their heads on the glass everytime they get spook and they spook very easily.
 
Mine are all 4" in a 125 gallon and they have plenty of swimming room..... for now anyway.

Sorry I was talking about the original poster. I think 125 should be plenty of room.
 
Even in his tank, Red hooks would be fine for a long time......as long as they started small. :)
