What kind of fish's should I start out with got myself a twenty-five gal. 30x60 cm. aquaruim and 20 1/2 inches tall? Do not like goldfish to dirty

, like Angels but not any other smaller fish will survive

? Need something easy to take care of, thinking of lots of the smaller type, fresh water not salt water to hard and expensive to set-up. Besides then I would want sea horses at hundred bucks each no thanks.

Mollies, sword tails and guppies are easy to raise .. I really like the fancy guppies for color in a small tank. They multiply easily and give live birth.
All you need is a good chunk of floating weed to pervent the adults from
eatting the babies. Platty's are also easy to care for..

I'm so sorry it took so long ...I've been busy outside this week, my hubbie has had the week off and we are trying to make the best of it and get the yard work and projects done.

I like baloon mollies too.Most of what I know is cichlids. There are a large variety of dwarf cichlids that would do great in that size of tank. Bolivian or blue ram cichlids would be a good choice, and they wouldn't bother the other fish. Oh yea, if you like the look of baloom mollies, you'll probably like baloon rams too, they are very cute.

If you like something a bit different try polypeterus. They are classified as an ancient fish, I have 2 and they are kind of like an ell, they are passive and are always out and about. We love ours

Thank you for the info about the fish. Am going to go and maybe check out some at my friends pet shop in Camrose [Petsgo Pets]. If I have time on sat., a friend from work is bringing her daughter and male friend to start up refresh my riding horses that have been pets for a few years.
