rasbora's ,Harlequin, Black Scissortail etc
tetra's, congo's, Serpae, Silver Tip Tetra
Corydora's Julii, but sterbai is my favourite!


many of the apistogramma species will do fine as long as there are hiding places for them.

Cheers,
Ben

I have kept many corys with my discus communities. Rummynose and Emperor tetras are favourites. Harlequin rasboras shoal niely too - and they get huge on beefheart :)

Ladyred has a beautiful type of fish in with some of her discus I think it is an apistigramma of some sort.. she will be able to tell you. Taksan posted some pictures of ladyreds fish in the photo gallery and the fish I am talking about is in one of those photos. It is about 3-4 inches long and looks gorgeous. Hope you can figure out which one I mean... Ladyred may be able to identify the one I mean...
