Anyone got hatchetfish

Looks like I'm moving Monster to a 29g, he molted again a few days ago, man he's getting big Anyways, most sites say a 29 will be as big as he needs for his species, but just him alone in a tank, what a waste of space.

So I was thinking of going with some hatchetfish, as they spend all their time top-level, and wouldn't be much in danger of him grabbing one. Just wondered how hard they are to keep, and if they can tolerate a little cooler temps (between 70-75)

firstly, i still wouldn't trust monster with anything...
secondly, hatchets won't survive the lower temps i'm afraid, especially the interesting ones such as marbled and dwarfs.

Oh, I don't trust him.
Just playing the odds... he still has two neons in his tank that have been in there since he has. 2 others have vanished, but I don't know if he caught them or they passed on their own, they came from a tank that was 'in trouble'

why don't you try a variety of danios - as they are fast , and most importantly cheap !
