What would you stock these tanks with ?

[djarmstrong]

Smallish tanks i know but i am thinking on ever getting a 48x15x12 or a 36x15x12Inch tank in about 3 or 4 weeks time but i am not sure what i would stock one with , ( i was thinking - Barbs , Tetras , Loaches , Ect ) but i am not 100% sure .

So i would like some ideas on what you lot would put in a tank of them sizes ?

Thanks .

Giant danios in the 4' tank, a school of about 15 of them.

Some yo yo loaches too.

What about Rainbow Fish ? Or would they get too big ?

Or maybe Conga Tetras ? Along wiith others .

Rainbows would be fine..You could maybe get a shoal of 12 of them..Different species Like praecox...bosemani, red, lake kutubu, parkonsoni And then maybe some blue eyes.. and maybe some loaches? What wil the filteration be ???

if you're leaning in any way towards tetras, then go with something unique like blind cave tetras, which are a truly interesting species

i just got a 20 antique that i set up as a sand bed with rocks. kinda like a rock garden. lol. but it is going to be stocked with mts, ramshorn, pond snails, pouch snails, other random snails, and the most important will be assassin snails. lol. that is the way to go!! you could always give them a try!!

Any picture of thesetype of fish , Google didnt come up with anything really , Unless ( which i dont know of )the spelling is wrong ?

I would love a large group of Exodon but i have no idea where to get them from . LFS dont have any , and all the Online shops that i know of dont have any .

Any online shops in the UK that sell them , Does anyone know of ?
