Hello everyone,
I hope u can help me, i am about to get a 53g tank and i was wondering which fish and how many to put into it.

I want colourful, nice looking fish that are active.I've heard that certain fish just hide all day long, it's just not rewarding if u don't get to see the fish.I would also like to know numbers cos i don't want to overstock or have those fish that nip unless u have 6 of them.I was hoping to put one bala shark and one red tail shark into the tank but i'm told they are a bit big and might be aggressive.

I hope u can help me,
Thanks
 
A school of red serpae tetras would look nice. I also like gold barbs which make a nice school. A redtail shark would be ok added later.

Is this your first tank? If so, the ammonia cycle should be researched. Fish need to added slowly or a fishless cycle used.
