Hello all, I have a 84"x36"x24" tank currently stocked with 3 stingrays around 8", a shoal of 18 red headed tapajos geo's and a 12" fire eel. filtration is a moving bed sump and an eheim 2262. my question is that all the activity seems to be in the bottom 1/3 of my tank. What would people add to this tank in order to get some more activity inn the upper layers of the tank? any suggestions welcome!
Thanks
Luke
 
if asian arowana is allowed.... that would be the obvious choice but you must have a heavy lid
 
Sounds like a lot of money and time already being invested in that one tank but if you want top water action then maybe some clouded archerfish. Some people say they require brackish water but i have not found that to be true.

You are right the only freshwater archerfish specie.
 
A shoal of festivums. If you want more personality then a larger pike like zebrina or tapajos 1 would fit the bill
