sadly I have lost 4 of my angels due to dropsy, I had put them all across to the hospital tank but I sadly had to euthanise them. Even through I was using salt the disease had gotten to bad and they all very suffering. I did 50 % water changes on my main tank everyday for a week to get rid of any remnant of the disease. my tank is now feeling a bit empty and I was hoping to get some more fish but really want some advice.

my current stocking is
1x angelfish
2x young clown loaches
2x baby flag cichlids
10x black phantom tetras
2x siamese algae eaters
1x albino glowlight tetra - very old
1x adult bristle nose pleco

I was thinking of electric blue Acara, blood red parrot or some apistogramma but I am not 100 percent sure about compatibility with my fish.

here is a picture of any tank

I think cichlids and hybrids are quite a risk in a community tank. Here is what I suggest.

1. Add some furcata rainbow fish and some lively corydoras. What do you feed the tank and what is the temp of the tank?

2. Add some more albino glowlight tetras. So add 7 more so the total is 8 OR if you don't want to add more albino glowlight tetras, you can add some different peaceful schooling fish.

I love furcata rainbow fish and am pretty sure that my lps sell them... I actually have never tried Corydoras and was going to but instead went for clown loaches. I don't think that when my clown loach get bigger that there will be enough room for any more bottom feeders. but I definitely will look in some corys.

for your questions my tank temp is at 25.7 c/ 78 f and I feed them frozen brine shrimp, frozen blood worms, peas and flakes.

I do like idea of getting some schooling fish, maybe adding to my black phantom tetras or maybe even some serape tetras for some colour. I don't think I will get any more albino glowlights because I've had my glowlight for nearly 6 years (they are only supposed to live for 2-4) and I'm not sure how much longer he is with us.

I am very interesting in some rainbow fish especially furcata rainbow fish because they look so gorgeous. how many would you recommend?
