favourite fish?

[Tooj]

Hi all. Ive got a new tank =)
Awsome btw.
Im looking for some new fish to add to my tank. Take a look at what i have.
Are there any types of fish that you guys really like? (that get along with my current ones of course). I was thinking of some sort of tetra? just for a different type of fish shape in the tank.

Well, for something totally different in shape and movement, what about some kuhli loaches???

I looove cories, so maybe up your cory school a bit? I second the khulis. They are too cool.
Ooh what about some of the smaller plecos? BN, clown, pitbull? Once your juvvie guppies grow up a bit they'll add a TON of color and activity into your tank! I really enjoy guppies XD

I don't really have a favorite and admire them all for their best qualities.
Wow that sounded hippie.

I would totally go for the kuhlie loaches. They are a riot and really add a lot to my tank. My youngest daughter thinks they are worms and goes "eeeeeewwwwwwwwwww" but can't stop watching them.

Yeah, they only seem to come in sporadically here. I'll let you know if I see any in the next little while.

My favorites are the Serpaes (High fin tetra minors) They are very colorful once acclimated to your tank and as long as you have at least 4 - 6 they seem to play together. They are very active. I have them in two tanks and have not had any problem with fin nipping even with my angels.

Mollies and Platties are my fav

I'm a fan of rainbows and killfish in terms of ones I don't yet have... I also like the platys... Oh, and there are some really neat swords out there, some of the coolest being the neons and the blues... If I'm living vicariously thru you, go for the swords
