What would you stock these tanks with ?

[bitteraspects]

Is they any other fish or group of fish you would persinally think about getting if it was you to choose the stock of the tank , Bitteraspects?

im more into oddballs and such, so i wouldnt know what other reasonable suggestions to gove.
if it were my tank, and i didnt fill it with exodons, or Acestrorhynchus Isalinae, i would probably go with a few datnoids, or if you go brackish, terapon jarbua.
if you had a larger tank i would suggest ca/sa cichlids, but your current tank is only large enough to hold a couple od types of ca/sa.

i personally do not like african cichlids, so i cant help in that department.

Thanks for your input .

Still not sure what to put in it .

Still need to get a large/ better filter for the tank aswel as a heater so i still have time to think i have no need to rush this tank but i would like to set it up in the next week or so .

Ill come back to this thread or maybe make a new one about what to stock it with when i get a better idea on what i would like to put in the tank , and get peoples help .

Is the tank large enough to house acouple of Angel fish ( for life ) along with some Tetras , Barbs , Corys , Ect . . . ? The tank been full of plants and probily with ever a peice of driftwood or rocks in there .

Right , made my choices and its going to be ever a Malawi Cichlid tank ( not sure which type yet ) or a fully Planted tank full of loads of small/ medium schooling fish .

As the tank is down stairs where everyone will see it i am trying to make it a tak full of intrest and that everyone will go up to it and watch it for a long time , not just to walk past it and not pay much intrest in it .

For what i can see is that these two types of setups would be the best for me ~ full of colour , full of intrest and full of personality . I just need to decide which i would like best in the long run . i would/ am hopfully go to be able to get another tank so i could do the other ( i one i dont choose ) at a later date , but its not 100% that i will get another tank so i dont want to setup this tank one way and then later on say i dont like it . So its sort of a hard decision for me ATM' .

Thoughts people ?
