Thank you for all your suggestions guys and it's been a great help and given me some good ideas, I like the 'Galaxy Rasboras' and also the 'Celestichthys erythromicrons' Not where I could locate the second option from though as I have not seen those in any stores I've been in. I decided to...

Hi guys, hope you are all doing well and it's good to be back after a few years break. I am after some advice and recommendations for some fish to go in a 50L - ideally something small that I can have 10 or 12 of... Nothing that likes to jump as the tank is open top... Any recommendations would...

Yes they are great fish, one of my favourite - look great in a planted tank too when they mature :thumbup:

I would say they are all females, sometimes females can have a orange-ish tinge, where as males have a distinct red.

Sorry to hear this Bert, some Rainbow fish are prone to getting mouth ulcers... Especially Praecox rainbows :(

Great photos Sanj.... I like your names too, I also have a Mr Naughty in the form of a Gourami!

i'd just keep your eye on him Bert.... Rainbows are well known for play fighting amongst other rainbows though, mine used to do it nearly all the time, so that could be the way its happened.... just watch and see really - it will more than likely just heal up within a few days, but if its the...

So its full size then, do you have others or he is he the only one? - id say he could be the culprit Bert

SAE's, can get very aggressive and territorial as they get older and bigger - how big is it? also they seem to slow down on eating some algae too.

Cheers mate... Your a star! I'll owe you a few beers though.... Maybe when you have the tank warming party ;)

Yes please mate :thumbup: ... im still reading up on them and keeping them going (please let me pay postage though mate)

I quite fancy a go at getting some of these banana worms going... Looks easy-ish and I'm sure the honey gourami swill love um!

Also remember these higher temperatures we have had are not the best for conditions too.

Yes really helpful information.... Loads of things I did not know, these sorts of threads for all different fish would be great too!

Yes they do that.... Some really nice rainbow fish too - their display tanks not bad either.

Are they now, that's great :) I do use that maidenhead quite a bit.... Only about a 40min drive for me - do you use them too then mate?

Has anyone seen any Clown Killifish for sale around the Leicestershire / Warwickshire area's?

Yes I have 7 in mine, lovely fish and when fed correctly they display stunning colours that look fantastic in a planted tank.

I moved over to NT Labs food, tiny granules.. Some sink and some float, minimal mess as the fish just gobble them up! have to say all my fish go mad for them and so far so good with colours on the fish:thumbup:

Funny you should say this, I had some of the 'Schwartzi' and found them very timid things even in decent numbers having kept 'julii' and some 'sterbai' beforehand - ive now gone back to Julii cories and these are much more friendly guys and they are always having a nosey at the front of my tank.

A good idea at £50.... Id take one off your hands :wink:

Are we talking dwarf gouramis or honey & red robin gouramis? Dwarfs are prone to health problems and have been for many years! However honey and red robins are allot stronger, my 4 honeys are very healthy and I've had them quite a while :thumbup: You might find them a stronger fish....

I have Rummy nose tetras with my shrimp and they are fine.

Thanks for that info George, I think I will definitely go for 10 and follow the food you have advised as yours looked stunning in the article you did. Thanks again :thumbup:

George, did you give them any special foods to get yours to that lovely color? I was looking at these today in the LFS for my next setup... They seem quite active too.

Would love to see a pic of that, they are stunning!

Stunning fish, I had rainbows in my last set up - they are by far the best fish I've had and look great in a large group.

Now they look perfect and I think they will suit my tank fine. I am going to try the LFS to see if they have any - I am thinking 30 or so... :thumbup:

I have been looking at Harlequins Rasboras - can anyone recommend them? do they tend to stay mid to top and stay together?

I am looking to add some some new fish to my aqaurium, I am after something small - (smallish) mid to top schooling fish... probably 20-30. Any suggestions?

They look nice, so what do you normally feed oto's on?

Wild P. scalare 'Peruvian' They are stunning George, I hope they settle in well, looking forward to seeing some more pics or video.

I could not have put that better myself! :lol:

Try the site below - I have used them before and you can tailor the beef heart mixture, also for a small charge you can add a freeze pack for the postage :-) http://www.beef-heart.co.uk/

Thanks for that, yes I will give them a try. I bought 10 from Ullesthorpe Garden Centre, just see how how they were... they are lovely little shoaling fish, so I want to add another 20 - Ullesthorpe have now sold out though for the next month or so :cry:

Hi, Does anyone know of any of these fish for sale in the Leicestershire or Warwickshire areas at all?
