help me choose fish!

[Kasakato]

A baby discus in Toronto is $80...each! They also require daily water changes and stuff. Id say skip it.

perhaps a discus, but arent they expensive and hard to care for?

Yes, they are. They are a bit cheaper here, but not much. Depends on what you're up for.

if yu keep your wter clean enough and dont have live plant you could try a silver dollar but not the red hooks. they prefer bigger tanks though and like beeing in small groups so its kinda you choice

why do you want a solitary fish? in that 20g you can put ''lots'' of gouramis or whatever

 

[fishyman45]

well heres what im putting in
3 platies, a sword, a guppy, 5 glolight, and that 1 solitary fish(sparkling gourami)
i want those in there, and over time, ill get more small group or couple fish. and as rainbow fish, i kinda like forktailed rainbow fish, maybe 2.
