I have recently recived the task of trying to decide on some fish for a 90 gallon show tank. The tank is in a doctor's office and the old pair of kissing gouramis they had in there died. The tank has a bunch of rocks and a floating bed of water sprite covering half of it. I have two preliminary ideas of how to fill it up.

1: A pair of Parapetenia loisellei

2: A few each of Archocentrus sajica, Archocentrus septemfasciatus, and Archocentrus spinossimus.

I am wondering how big the loisellei will get and how they would fare in the aquarium.

Would a large bunch of archocentrus fare well togeather?

You mean parachromis loisellei? I think it is about 10-12".

IMO, I will not put in A. Spinosissimus. They are very peaceful and get skittish.
