Odd Ball set up

[Rob_sutherland]

I currently have 2 ghost knife fish and 1 violet goby in my 100 gallon tank, Can anyone recommend and other odd ball fish that would be suitable for my tank. I am interested in either getting a couple of rope fish or an eel of sum sort, would this be a good idea ??? Any other suggestions would be great

tiretrack eels are awesome...gotta feed em live food...but they're cool "oddball" fish.

Some of the catfishes look quite bizarre. The weather loach is supposed to be so ugly that... well, they look weird too.

Glass shrimp? You can see what they last ate...

I dunno... Hagfish? :sick: :joke:

Weather loaches are SUPER ugly. :sick:

An African butterfly is a possibility. Looks weird, and will be at the surface.

was thinking the same thing or a bichir

butterfly would need a tightly covered tank and might get lost in a tank that big.

Rope fish look neat - don't know anything about them though.. maybe sturisoma aureum. www.planetcatfish.com has some cool species...They've got a goo pic of this one, but its copyrighted and won't let me link it or the site. I'd go check them out

maybe leaf fish? then you're kind of in the same boat as the butterfly...

Thanks, I had a look on those links. I think that the butterflyfish will be a little boring for my tank even though it looks great. I'm considering a fire eel would they be a good idea. Also I'm thinking of looking at getting a silver arowena.

fire eels are cool, i would think they'd be fine in a 100g.

thanks do they go best singly of in pairs ???? Do you know of any websites that have any info about them ???
