FoughtWand Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 I am looking to add some more fish to my 55 gallon. Right now it has 20 neon tetras, a pearl gourami, a bristle nose pleco, and a bunch of cories. I am looking for something else to add, maybe another schooling fish but am open to anything.

FrozenFins Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 I would get 2 more gouramis. Make sure its a 1 male for every two female ratio if you choose to get another few. Silvertip Tetras are very cool and a great schooling fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devind0446 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 I agree with more gouramis, they are an incredible fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JettsPapa Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 I'll make it 3 votes for more pearl gouramis. I have 8 in my 40 gallon breeder (2M, 6F) and really enjoy watching them. Though they aren't shoaling fish, like tetras, corys, etc, they are social and will interact with each other. If you want another species along with them then lemon tetras and serpae tetras are some of my favorites. The serpaes look especially nice in a planted tank. I'd suggest at least 8 of either one.

David W Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 I would add more neon tetras. One huge school of small fish is fun to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T.H. Fishkeeping Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 some gold mystery snails and more neons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjharper Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 These are all very good suggestions (More tetras, rainbows, rasboras, etc). If I may add, I would think out looking at some swordtails, they can add a variety to the tank and they do not get very big. I guess it all depends on if you want small fish to add or something of size. GL too many good choices out there to decide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishyJames Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 I have 10 black neon tetras. They stick together and are very hardy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
