im redoing my tank (29g) for my 2 kribs (M/F)...
thinking about a lightly planted (possibly plastic not sure yet) with many rock formations with play sand
what will be a good additioni to this tank that wil lcompliment them?

so far this is what i want(not sure if its a good idea please tell me)
-female krib
-neon tetras (if good idea please recomend a number of them)
-sturisoma whiptail catfish
-anything else

oh and i have 2 otos

thanks for your input :D

I swear I answered this post yesterday...but the entire thread disappeared!

Anyway, why add another krib? They're pair breeders, although in the rare case some have harem bred. I think it would be trouble.

Whiptail catfish are cool, but the kribs could be an issue with one...just keep an eye on it to make sure there's not problems. Also, this could add significantly to your bioload...so watch the nitrates, too (whiptails are senstive to them).

I think neons would be fine.

I wouldn't add anything else - understocking is always better than overstocking.
