I got a nice 45g corner tank with stand, filter, the whole setup. It had two BIG tinfoil barbs which could barely go in a circle--and a pair of convicts which the guy told me would attack the barbs whenever they spawned. It was sad. I moved the fish to a 135 and they are doing well. The barbs have plenty of room, and the convicts have already spawned. Plenty of room for them to defend their young, and the barbs can swim freely.
So now someone close to me wants the 45g in her house. But she has no knowledge of aquariums, and she has a disability which would make it hard for her to do water changes. She is another town, so I couldn't service it for her.
The filter is big for the tank size.
What should I set her up with? It might have to go months without a water change. She can top it off and scrub the glass.
I was thinking a couple of fancy goldfish and a few white cloud minnows with an automatic feeder...what do you think? Any and all suggestions welcome.
