So, I've been having a think about possible stocking for my Current aquascape 'Lianko' and these are the four main fish that stick out for me.
Cherry Barbs - they come from Sri Lanka, so adding them would make this tank a true biotope as planned. My onlly fear is that they grow too big for the tank, only being 35l and it will somewhat take away that sense of scale. They also aren't the most streamlined fish, so might not suit the tanks dimensions being quite long but not very tall in comparison but overall would go with the feel of the aquascape.
Celestial Pearl Danio - I've always liked this fish, and with them being small and streamlined it suits the tank dimensions.
Glowlight Danio - as above really, saw them in the shop and they look like great fish, slightly yellow in colour which would be a nice contrast. I think they might be a bit too fast for the aquascape, taking away that sense of calmness if you know what I mean?
Boras Brigittae - always fancied this fish, looks nice, streamlined and small which is good for this aquascape as already mentioned, and nic ecolouration etc.
Any experience/thoughts on these choices would be appreciated the tank in question can be viewed by clicking the link in my signature. I'm also open to any other suggestions, so fire away!
