Stock suggestions

[Dairy]

Some months after my sen's demise... I am now tempted on getting something fill up the space... I wanted some mid-tank swimmers before, but wanted to get another sen as well (either or). I want something that is easily available like in Petsmart or Petco. My lfs is still kinda far and they seldom have stocks that interest me. My setup isn't much though so there's probably limited choices. I have:

40g breeder
Eheim 2217
8.5" Sen

Any suggestions? or (1) sen is enough for a 40g?

Excited!

With that filtration I wouldn't see why you couldn't do like 8-12 Tiger barbs zipping around mid space. One may get nabbed here and there tho. But for the most part they are fast enough to be out of reach.

Hmmmm tiger barbs sound interesting. They should look nice in that group around the midtank. But they're not gonna pester my sen, are they? Theyre known to be nippers right?

Giant danios grow up to 4" right? Wouldn't they be food for the sen as well since they are long instead of rounder? well.. if the sen get to catch it..

As long as the tiger barbs are in larger groups >5 I'd say they'd mind their own business. I've successfully kept them with angels. Buy the larger Barbs from petsmart (if yours is trustworthy) and they'll be fine IMO, and they are lightning fast. I've seen them run around like a mad-man. Also as far as becoming feeders, keep your Sen fed and not on live and I don't think he'll be a burden.
