I've read so much on fish recently that some of the details are swimming. So... in a tank with a calmer male (or female..), would any:
Guppies
Rainbowfish
Borneo Suckers
Ricefish/killifish
Barb
Goby
Pleco
Swordtail
Work in the big tank? Not ALL of them, but any of them in particular?
And if I keep 3 french blue livebearers with 3 el tigre livebearers, does that constitute a 6 fish shoal or will they see the groups as too small? (typically, not an absolute)
I'm not interested in Tetras, my experience with them has been lacking, and I don't particularly like Rasboras as they just remind me of Tetras. (I don't know, maybe I'll get over it but they can be left out for now)
At the moment if GG can't get along with others, she's getting her own home, and if a big tank stresses out Ori, he's staying in a smaller tank (than the 45), so I may just be considering a betta-less tank. Which is unlikely in all honesty. Especially when I see Bettas like these available. Someones getting a new tank dang-it!
