    Default Suggestions for what to add...

    ...to the 40 gallon long tank. Current inhabitants: 3 red velvet swordtails (2 female, one male), 6 red eye tetras, 6 corys, 3 gold mollies, and a few snails. I had about 8 other mollies, but they unfortunately didn't make it, darn it. I want to add another 3 swordtails, pineapple variety, but any other cool ideas? I'd love to add a specimen fish to the lot but not sure about that. Your ideas will be appreciated!
    8 tanks running now:
    1x 220 gallon, 2x55 gallon, 1x40 gallon long, 1x29 gallon, 1x20 gallon long, 1x5.5 gallon, 1x2 gallon
    Gouramis, barbs, rasboras, plecos, corys, tetras, fancy guppies, swordtails, ottos, rainbow shark, upside-down catfish, snails, and Max and Sparkles the bettas.

    Ahhhh, good one. As you may remember my one 55 gallon tank is a primarily gourami-populated one. I love them! How many would you add? Any other ideas?

    You could probably do 2 males and 3-4 females with no problems. Hungryhound has 3 in a 46g and they do not bug each other.
