Schooling fish for Parrots and Angels

[agaul]

Hi everyone.

I have a 70gal planted, with 2 Blood parrots, 2 Angels (everyone about the same size) and a pl*co. I would like to add a school (of about 10 probably) smaller fish, hopefully something with a little color, and nothing too nippy. I would like Neon Tetras but everyone here who tried that seems to have gotten them eaten. So any other suggestions? Me next thought was blue gouramis, but I'm not sure. Or else possible some Mollies?

Thanks alot.

I would suggest swordtails, they aren't really shoaling, but they get on the largish side for livebearers, and could hold their own fairly well, as well as being a fairly hardy fish. I would keep an eye on the parrots, as they mature they may start harassing the angels.

how about some giant danios? 4 inches maximum and a neat schooling fish. Or possibly some larger tetras like emperors (Very pretty).
Just some thoughts...

Cochus Blue Tetras are hardy and in the right water conditions are very pretty. They lived throughg a recent bout of Neon Tetra Disease and are a lively schooling fish.
