I believe its some sort of asian killi not sure on exact I.D. and its currently in a 55 with three tinfoils that'll be going into my 90 gal. Possible tankmates? And what type of set-up would be ideal?
 
Not too much water movement is preferred by them. Plants are nice, but not absolutely necessary. I would keep them with fish not to big to swallow them and fish that arent too aggressive.
 
That may work. Nothing predatory though, or the killi will disappear. I have a killi in my tank right now with 2 small cichlids, and hes able to evade them when they try to mess with him. But when they get a little bit bigger I am gonna move him, hes a nice little fish.
 
depends on the type of killi, some like golden wonder, are pretty feisty and are good for semi-aggressive communities of smaller fish that won't prey on the killi
 
No pics avaliable but its like emerald green almost neon. He's doin fine with the tinfoils im growin out for my 90 gal
 
I would keep it with danios, barbs and maybe large tetras like Hyphessobrycon anisitsi.
 
Would yall recomend the amazon/killi setup or maybe just breedin convicts for healthy feeders for my 90? I breed the fancy guppies but they arent going to be substantial at all for feeders for my "biggies" (biggies for ME that is for u darn MONSTER keepers!) Those are my two thoughts, and yes if i go the other way i have a happy home for the killi.
