pacus, but they get way too big.


I think I would have to go with pacus also! the 4 that I had were over crowded in a 55 (while I was waiting for my 180) and lived through a 48 hour power outage! They were invincible. Too bad I had to give them up when they out grew the 180.
 
convicts and south american plecs!

Anything able to survive long enough to make it from Walmart to a home aquarium.

What do you mean by this, that Walmart is far away from your home? Or that walmart takes bad care of its fish? I don't think my walmart has fish, I wouldn't trust them anywa.

Black Skirt Tetras are also very hardy. Mine survived a major disease outbreak. He even puts up with a cobalt blue cichlid, and even likes to school with it. The cichlid doesn't like that, though.

He meant that.:) Walmart shops do have a reputation for poorly-maintained tanks, don't they?
