Room For a Kulhi Loach?

[Zman16]

Do you think I have room for a kulhi loach?

 

[jaglar]

yes...They only get up to three inches. (or are the different types/colours different?)

I'd say since they like to be in groups there isnt enough room in the bottom part of your tank for Kuhli's.

 

[Zman16]

Yeah I know i have a lot of bottom dwellers.

 

[Zman16]

Is there any other type of fish i can get?

 

[CAPSLOCK]

What about a couple of cherry barbs? Or a few female swords or more males, the other fish should take care of the potential overpopulation problems. You've got room for a few more female bettas, too.

Are you looking to add to what you've got or get something different?

 

[Zman16]

I actually was thinking of another swordtail (female) but i would like something different.

 

[Seleya]

You could definitely get some female swords, in a 29 I would suggest against another male.

 

[Zman16]

The swordtail ( his names Einstine ) always is around the betta. I think Einstine thinks the betta is a female swordtail. Whats really weird is that she's getting fatter and is hidding like a pregnant swordtail. But I know they couldn't have.... Or else I'm getting bettaswords. lol.

 

[Zman16]

So is there any different fish i could get?

A female gourami? Pearl gouramis are supposed to be pretty passive for a gourami, and a female gourami should be fine with a female betta (at least they are in my tank...). Not 100% sure about a male dwarf gourami... I don't know if one would go after a female betta.

Cherry barbs would work too, they are different personalities from the fish you have.

 

[Zman16]

Would I be able to fit a ADF and a female swordtail?

 

[CAPSLOCK]

ADFs are kinda wimpy feeders... I don't think one would find much to eat in there, not with all the other bottomfeeders. You could put one in the 10g with the betta if the betta doesn't mind.

You might want 2 female swords, or the male will probably pester the one constantly.

 

[Zman16]

Could an African Butterfly fish go in my tank? I always wanted one, but I'm not sure if It would be able to go in my 29.

 

[CAPSLOCK]

Not sure... I know they don't like a lot of surface movement, and I'm pretty sure they are tank jumpers. Does the female betta hang out at the top of the tank a lot?

 

[Zman16]

Shes usually at the middle part of the tank. But at feeding time she'll be at the top.

P.S. I got 2 female swordtails, yesterday, just like u said. So I don't know if I could fit a ABF. But I hope I could. Could I?

 

[CAPSLOCK]

I don't know. You might want to start a new post about that, for people who know something about ABFs but might not check a kuhli loach thread...

 

[Zman16]

Yeah I'm going to do that right.

I think a few Marbled or Silver Hatcetfish would be a nice addition to your tank. I have a couple in my 25 g community, and they get along just fine.
