fish ideas for 50g

melnick6003 · November 6th, 2008

I hav a 50 G tank and Was wondering if there are any ciclids that are not highly aggressive that i could add to my tank. Or if anyone has any ideas on very colourful fish that would be great. The brighter the colors the better. I have ordered a zebra pleco, and would like to get some clown loaches. My tank is going to be naturally decorated with rocks diftwood and lots of plants!!

This is a good reference for cichlid tank set ups.

Don't forget Apistogrammas like the cockatoo cichlid and cardinals, and Koi Angelfish.
