Set up..who to put in...

[Pennie]

Ok. I have a 65 gal. Set up...its cycling now. Im researching the apisto's but I live in SC and these little guys are hard to find. I have losts of caves and its planted with a mix of fake and live plants and lots of low light areas. Can someone suggest some dwarfs that are colorful, peaceful and some tank mates please. Along with an algee eater

Dwarf cichlids: anomalochromis thomasii, nanochromis sp, pelvicachromis, dicrossus sp. There are a ton more cool dwarf cichlids, but these are some of my faves. For tank mates, it depends on what you want. You could do a nice school of tetras, hatchets, or pencilfish, with a school of corydoras for the bottom. Some great algae eaters are farlowella catfish, BN catfish, nerite snails.

Yes, lots to choose from. I'm guessing this is a community tank and not a breeding tank.
