For TheTerror!!

Hiya TT . I had forgotten to lock the articles on the various fish types, when we changed the forum skin, so have done that now and movd your q here if that's ok

You asked -

Hi Diane,
I've got four Harlequins, and I see you recommend more. Would they mix/shoal with another type of rasbora, or should I get more 'quins?
Thank you
TT

I have got 6 Harlequin Rasboras and also some Emerald Eye Rasboras. They do all swim round together in the middle of the tank, but the majority of the time they tend to shoal with their own species.

I am a fan of Harlies tbh. They seem to be quite hardy (they have survived in my tank for over 2 years now and believe me I knew NOTHING about keeping fish!!), and I haven't lost one of them, unlike other fish like guppys, plattys etc.

Hi Di,
Got eight of the little beauties now, plus four Celbes Rainbowfish - really pretty colours and fins. Apparently they only show these charicteristics when happy, so I think it's going well.
Looking to finish things off with a couple of Killifish Gardeneris. I've heard mixed reviews about them being potentially agressive or totally docile.

Killifish are lovely but be aware that a lot of them are only an annual species (i.e. only live one year) and also need specific conditions so be sure to research them before committing.
