Hi all, i have a huge plecto sucker catfish (eric!), 2 big angelfish (billy and bob), a silver (bala) shark that is massive (sharky)! and one not so big (george), two kribensis (flash and stripes) and a lone swordtail (romeo). I am looking at getting new fish as i couple died a while ago. The ones that passed away were an albino shark (bino) the female swordtail (juliet) and a ghost knife fish (toastie).

Re: Can anyone recommend new fish for me???
large silver dollars. parrot fish. bigger rainbow fish(red/bosemani/splendid). gold/3 spot/moonlight/pearl/opaline gourami's(not dwarf), pink kissing gourami. all of these you are looking 4-6 inches. what i wouldn't suggest is the big fish that get aggressive like Oscars (12inches easy) or the Malawi Cichlids. Severums at a push would be ok but your looking about 8-10 inches for those.
proberly better if you could find them at a minimum of 3-4 inches to minimise the risk of the others bullying them, unless parrots or severums because they are pretty tough anyway ![]() I have 2 kissers called Jin and Sun. I had a 16inch black ghost called Casper. I havn't got names for my parrots or angels yet, havent really thought about it. I did name them all before after Lost characters ![]() *Heidi*

Re: Can anyone recommend new fish for me???
How big is your tank? Also what type and size of filter are you using? Some of the fish suggested above are also very active species. Silver dollars for example will need a 120 x 60 x 60cm tank as a minimum. Also Common plecs grow huge, upto 50cm/20", so make sure that you have a very large tank once it reaches it's full size.
