Recommendation for fishes suitable for Planted tank

[octopus]

Looking to add some colorful fishes to the tank. At the moment i have Rummy Nose, Cardinal Tetra, Halequin Rasbora. Read about Galaxies and have added it to the collection a week ago. Any suggestion for other harmonious fishes. I have tried guppies but they died on me and have ruled it out. If any bro have too many of such fishes can sell them to me as well.

Hi bro,

I love keeping small fishes in planted tank too. But i dont like to mix them in small mass, maybe 2 large group is good. Some of my favourite one and look great in a planted tank are Rasbora, White Cloud Mountain Minnows, Serpae Tetras, Ember Tetras, Blood fins and Red Phantom Tetra. And also since u r planting planted, u might want to keep oto cats.

how big is your tank? how many fish you currently have inside? sound like you alrady have many different fishes inside

Forgot to mention the cleaning crews. 1 OTO, 1 Golden Algae Eater and a Horned Snail.

Red Phanthom and White cloud looks interesting. But so far never came across them in the LFS that i have been to. Please post here if there is any sighting of them in the LFS.

White cloud minnows I've seen at JZX@AMK. Maybe you want give the boss a call to see if they still have. The red phantoms, I've never seen before. Went and googled them and wow! They're cool looking! Almost like mini Hooks!
