      Buy more Corys....and just get the rest of the male congo tetras .... you need a much larger school of Congos for that tank and 6/9 is a perfect ratio.

    I can relate, I can't go into shops and browse. I have to phone in, order, walk in and sprint out. It's triple dangerous for me because I have decommissioned tanks that would take me 0 time to recommission, so the old "I don't have room" excuse doesn't work. My inner fish hoarder just reminds me "you have x spare tanks... remember."

    This is SO what happens in this hobby! You get some fish, you decide you can use more, you get more, they grow, of course they need their own tank, and before long your tanks start breeding!

    I absolutely love your enthusiasm! The way you describe your fish and your aquariums and the other joy when you discover a new fish is completely contagious. Keep up the great work! Your little Kili fish most likely survived on Mike roof Anna in the tank for that six months if you bring plants into a tank after a bit you will have all kinds of microphone growing and thriving in the tank enough for very small fish to thrive on almost without feeding🐠🦯

    For the African tank, you should get leopard ctenopoma. They're absolutely beautiful fish. They max out at 8 inches, but it's rare for them to get bigger than 6 inches and average length is 5 inches. They would be a stunning addition for the tank and they aren't big enough to eat the congo tetras or kribensis

    About those bristle-nose plecos. As they grow up, they get quite big, angry and destructive. They eat plants (especially echinodorus plants), they burrow under decorations, they throw gravel everywhere and they are territorial among themselves and sometimes also among other fish. And they breed like crazy.
    To be clear. I do like mine, I have them from young and they are my "puppies". I just cannot stand their shenanigans. :D
