My favorite fish - hatchet fish. Get the black wing hatchet fish. One of the smaller version. They are even smaller than the marbled hatchet fish. They are rare because only few import them!

They are great jumper!
Danios - yes! but boring fishes : ) : )

The typical Zebra Danio is boring, but not the other flashy species. Try Danio choprai if you can find them.
Fish.. Simply Irresistable
Back to Killies... slowly.
i was looking at like those red danios, striking colours.
what about rasboras? are they top dwelling fishes too?
Rasboras occupy the same stratum as tetras
Are there any other suitable top dwelling fishes other than Danios?
Pengiun Tetra
ohh i didnt know penguin tetras were top dwellers. I thought all tetras were bottom/mid dwellers.
Thanks for the suggestion, bro.
white cloud mountain minnow... they doing well in my tetra tank
I if not wrong I think I saw either at seaview or NKS not very sure which but confirm I saw the name written on the fish tank
Clown killies perhaps? GC has them.
NKS is Neo Kim Swee at Kovan

WCMMs go all over the place, not just the top sector. Penguin Tetras are mid-water swimmers. However, WCMMs are hardy fish. Locally we have the normal, longfin and gold variants I believe. C328 always has them from time to time, along with Danio choprai, which is an uncommon species. Clown killies are an excellent choice, if you can provide them with their basic requirements and diet. If you want something cheaper then perhaps the Lampeyes would be an alternative choice.
If you have jumpers then a mesh cover or some netting over the top of the tank will be required, unless you have a thick cover of floating plants.

Thanks for sharing Stormhawk, I thought Pengiun Tetra are top level swimmer as I kept them twice before and for both batches, they spend most of their type at the top level. I only kept small peaceful fish as their tankmates. So they are not trying to avoid other fishes by staying at the top level. Just sharing by experiences of keeping them
