I am looking at brackish fish right now, and I was wondering if there are any schooling striped fish that work with columbian cat sharks, so bumblebee gobies are out.
Guppies?
Mollies?
Scats?
any reccomendations would be great!
 
Target fish(therapon jarbua) Somewhat schooling fish but very aggressive.
Archers have nice striping and will school
Tiger scats but very rare and hard to get.
 
I was going to say target fish also, but they are the previous post said, very aggressive. I had seen them some time ago at a LFS and really liked them, but some research here on MFK convinced me not to. Just go with archers, can't have a brackish tank without them
 
I hope you have a large tank - both Archers and those catfish grow big, not to mention they both like to be kept in groups.
 
48"x20"x18". That's a 75g long, right?
Snails would be awesome!
Possibility of sail fin mollies?
Stripeyness is not essential.
 
Snails might be awesome, but become a plauge and are hard to get rid of...

The mollies stay a little small (I fear some predation) and those shark cats and archers will need a little more space as well.
 
Agree. the mollies will not last with the colombian sharks in there and even the archers, considering that the colombians are pretty efficient and active
