Just thought that I would say hello to all the members.
Right now I am running a 135 gal FW on a fluval FX5. the tank is lightly planted with 15 or so plants for low light conditions. Housed in it are around 80 or so tetras and 4 angels.
What I would like to do is get a predator in there to reduce the numbers naturally and eventually turn the tank into a species only tank. I do not want to remove any of the plants and would like to have a predator that is not a glutton or one that will totally destroy my plants.
Could someone recommend a good predator to do this, in terms of size of the predator that I am looking for, I would like it to start out small and reach a max size of no more than 12" as I do not want to have to get a larger tank down the road.
Any advice would be appreciated.
