Jen Abe Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 (edited) Hello all, I have a really nice pair of Apisto in a 20 gallon long living with 8 zebra danio, some carbon rilli shrimp and a dwarf snowball pleco named Frank. I would like to add a few more schooling fish and don't want to disturb the peace. Was thinking of either Serpae (or was it red phantom?), Lemon or Emperor tetra. I also thought about rummy nose. I believe this planted tank can handle 10 small schooling fish without issue. edited: Also thinking about cherry barbs... Any thoughts from those familiar with Apisto? I have attached photos of Eros and Psyche. They have been a joy so far...hoping for fry at some point though I think I might have neighborhood population control with the danio 🙂 Thanks for any help!

Patrick_G Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Stunning Apistogramma! Are you thinking of adding 10 more schooling fish or just an extra two to make a total of 10 including the Danios? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to get more danio but this is a good opportunity to add something new to the mix. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My gut says it won’t be good, but I don’t keep Apistogramma so I’m not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
