FishObsessed Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Just curious..... What fish out there (not just goldfish) dont need plants or caves to feel comfortable...that would essentially be comfortable in a bare tank with minimal decor?

ange Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 I feel like most "monster fish" meet this criteria. Think fish like arowana and fully grown oscars. KG Tropicals made a video awhile back and it shows a ton of different setups. Most of them are bare bottom and have only large pieces of driftwood or other hardscape. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MickS77 Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 African Cichlids do well with minimal decor. I kept Haplochromis & Peacock cichlids in a large group with minimal decor. The large group helps curb aggression without needing lots of caves and hiding spots. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveSamsell Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 @FishObsessed, I have many Scissortail Rasboras & they really seem to go out of their way to stay in the "open" portions of the aquarium. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Ellison Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Angelfish kinda seem in different to plants. Also most live bearers seem to only need them for breeding. Kribs seem to really only need a cave. My white clouds stay at the top of the water and never go to the plants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
