Get a prochilodus too salty, great algae eaters.

I DEFINATELY agree with this!! Fei Feng (flag tails) would look AWESOME in there as a small or larger group!! Probably would school with the dollars. They have more color and get a bit larger, but would look great in the tank! I mean look at these guys, they are awesome looking!! Herse the website where i got the picture so you can read up on them!! ;)

There is a red or a yellow variant as well..;)
 
im diggin on those guys any idea on price
 
TFD has some for pretty cheap...i think $15 a pop. Alex (Fish Room Plus) has some as well. They are pretty easy to get i guess and right now they are pretty cheap as well, compared to what they used to be. Really a desireable fish, I absolutely love them, and when i get my 300gal back from my 'rents place in Nebraska, yeah, tis gonna have a group of them for sure! ;)
 
I swear by them but they tend to do best solo in my experiences, but then again Ive never had a tank the size of a jacuzzi. A small school of them, say 3to 6 of them, will keep things spotless. Im paying at least $30.00 for 4'', so 15 is a steal. Id love to score a bunch (10 or so) at 1'' to 2''.
 
price sounds reasonable now if shipping didnt cost so much oh well they are added to the list you guys are gonna send me into bankruptcy with all these fish they are nice though how many should i be looking for as i dont know much about them 3, 6, 8? lmk thanx guys
 
You could keep 3 in that tank.
 
I'd go with at least six. Would look MUCH better, and the aggression would definately be more spread out...;). If you can afford that though is the problem...don't go any lower than 4 though....;). Three is a nice number, but four is better for schooling fish...;)
