Though it could be a few years down the road, I've already started contemplating and researching new fish, tank and filtration. Currently I just have a 10g betta tank.
I really like the color of the various cichlids. But the more I looked into it, I knew it wasn't for me. I like to look at them, but the care for them seemed more than what I was capable of.
Is there an alternative when you can get one type of fish (with color) in a community tank? I already learned gouramies are too territorial to be amongst themselves. And I'm not crazy about tiny schooling fish.
Am I thinking the impossible and just go for a mix of little fish of varying colors?
As for tank size, I'm thinking 55g. If depth were needed, maybe 75 or 40g breeder.
