10 Gallon Tank: Lone Glowlight Tetra

Downward Dog · June 2nd, 2009

Hi all,
I have a lone Glowlight Tetra, which I just read should be schooled in groups of 5 or more and in a min. 20 gal tank! So not what my LFS told me when I set up my aquarium! So, now what do I do

I'm looking to add only 1 other fish and was thinking it should be another Cory for my now-lone albino. What do you guys think

Thanks,
Lenore

If you can't get him a few friends, you should take him back to the fish store. Maybe they'll let you exchange him for the cory.

I agree with MaddieLynn, Glowlights really do work best in schools. And plus cories are so good

Since this was in April, I'm not so sure how receptive they'd be to me returning him. But I can ask, right!?! Thanks. I feel bad for the little guy...

I'd try real hard anyway, if not, put him on freecycle, but make sure the person that gets him in the end has Glowlights as well
