I wanted to get some new fish but don't know whats compatable with mine.

I have 2 5 1/2 in Needle Noses

1 8 inch sucker fish

1 3inch Gourami

1 6 inch eel

What other fish can it get

 

[Stevie]

What size is your tank??

 

[angel51431]

eel get pretty big though don't they? And eat everything that fits into their mouths? So... nothing that stays small.

Hmmmmmmmm......Bg,thats a double post......now I'm saying this as a Mft "friend" that does not go down to well with people here!

Its considered quite rude and is generaly frowned upon by everyone (some more so then others)

Do the right thing. Delete it!*thumbsups

 

[Stevie]

Thats a triple post man.......bad jazz.

 

[Stevie]

what type of eel?

I would say you have a good bit of room to maneuver there!!

You could go for a nice catfish! I always like Pictius or a black lancer!

 

[BlackGhost]

Bichir Eel will get 12 inches

 

[CAPSLOCK]

Oh, see a bichir is not an eel, and I've never heard it called an eel (unlike things like a tiretrack or fire eel, which also aren't really eels but they are always called eels... and are probably what everyone assumed you meant by eel).

If your "sucker fish" is a common pleco, it'll outgrow the tank eventually.

 

[RockingCricket]

What other fish can I get?

Are you seriously asking for a list of all the fish that may be suitable for your setup?

Try sticking with community fish untill your experience, confidence and ability grow.*thumbsups

Also, if you wanna sound a little more in the know, you might wanna refer to sucker fish as Plec's, Pleco's or even Plecostomus. Peace!

Demanding an answer around here doesn't get you good results, nor does asking a question more than once. I'll move this to FW beginner and combine all of them or get rid of the duplicates. If you truly want help with your stocking you also need to let us know what size tank you have and what kind of tank you're going for. This is in the predatory section, yet you definitely dont have a predatory tank...
