Fish for a 30 gallon....

[Crystal520]

.....well I cleaned out our 30 gallon and moved into the spare room. I want to find some colorful small fish to put in it but not sure what kind would be good. It is a 30 gallon bowfront and I want it to be freshwater of course. Any suggestions?

Glo-fish

Platys, guppys, various tetras, rainbows. There are lots of choices. You could center it around an angel or gourami as well.

 

[Lupin]

Kuhli loaches, hengeli rasboras, pearl danios, Columbian tetras and celestial pearl danios.

Platies, plus some black or marble mollies for color contrast. :idea:

Glo-fish

Glo-fish are only colorful because they're genetically altered.

1 fancy goldfish.. a smaller variety such as a bubble eye or celestial

OR (I made a list that could fit in my 15g tank):

Ruby Barb- Puntius Nigrofasciatus
Blue-barred Barb- Barbus Barilioides
Chain Loach- Botia Sidthimunki
Pakistan Loach- Botia Lohacata
Bleeding Heart Tetra- Hyphessobrycon Erythostigma
Cochu's blue tetra- Boehlkea Fredcochui
Silver-tip Tetra- Hasemania Nana
3 Spot Tetra- Odontostilbe kriegi

I have a 30 long with a pair of Bolivian rams, 1 dwarf gouarmi, a school of corys and a school of neon tetras. It looks great...........Harlequin rasboras would look great too!
