How about copella_eigenmanni or Copella arnoldi ? I think they looks cool too.
Ok, after all the googling, I was referring to this, Nannostomus trifasciatus, however, I'm now looking at this, Nannostomus marginatus. Hehe.
First thing, to catch the damn rummies first!! Then only can I set this plan in motion. hehe.

Think i'll stick to the pencil & rasboras for the time being until my mind is made up.
Need to fish out the rummies first.
Wish me luck!!

Since you have discus, I would suggest South American fishes only, nicer scape than having Rasboras.
Last night saw the Hyphessobrycon roseus (should be lar) at EcoCulture. Many of them and they seemed to school pretty nicely. Beautiful sight.
Very, very nice, Hyphessobrycon roseus, need to call Azmi to ask him how much they are.
By the way, I'm going to try the bottle trap tonight on the rummies.

For the your tank size, you jolly well can clear his tank siah. Think got 30-40 pieces in there. And prices are very acceptable.
yeah.
First got to remove the rummies.

err.. think you guys are talking about totally different fishes.
Take note that there is a Hyphessobrycon roseus.. and also there is a Hyphessobrycon rosaceus... The one Azmi have is Hyphessobrycon rosaceus.
Aaron.. re-google and see if you like this one...i agree that H.roseus is nicer.. but this one is quite cute also la.. somemore red red one.
Some are a bit fiesty though..
Ooops...
Thought something was wrong when I copied the name from your post.
Hoho, I like this very much, Hyphessobrycon roseus. I've seen Hyphessobrycon rosaceus before, somehow I have the feeling that the Hyphessobrycon rosaceus will end up taking a bite or two off my plants as well.
Haha I would like to have a school of pygmy glass fish though. But too bad they don't school.

Hyphessobrycon spp. should be plant safe... Strange that the smaller characins are now seen as plant chompers... Usually only the big characins like the dollars and the pacus are known as chompers...
Read me! :bigsmile: http://justikanz.blogspot.com/
I'm crypt collecting... Starting cheap, now have Cryptocoryne beckettii, C.beckettii var petchii, C.crispatula var.balansae, C.griffithii(Melted! ), C.nurii, C.parva, C.pygmaea(Melted! ), C.tonkinensis(Melted! ), C.walkeri, C.wendtii 'Brown', C.wendtii 'Green', C.wendtii 'Green Gecko', C.wendtii 'Tropica' and Cryptocoryne x willisii
Oh, juggling is hard work, man!...
aaron.. H. roseus was seen the last time i was in singapore.. however, recently, i havent seen it in the market..i do admit however that it is quite a pretty fish.. Last time seaview have a whole lot of them for a good price.
Hi Grey Fox,
Just curious, which one of the 3 commonly referred to rummy nose are yours? http://www.characin.com/carey/articl...rummynose.html
Perhaps you can identify them so that other hobbyists here can take note.

How about the glass catfish? They are by far the coolest schooling fish I have seen. The more of them, the healthier they will be too. Frankly, they are too underrated by the public.
Aaron, take care not to get microrasbora[similar sized] or they will be a meal for your discus! I suggest, Rasbora kalochroma or Inlecypris purpurea.
Not so easy to eat as they're fast but if too many they may outcompete your discus for the food.
You can if you dare to fail - Stan Chung
