I am not familiar with Killi fish at all but I heard some do very well in planted tanks.
Been browsing through AB and saw a bunch but I don't really know which type is for me. 4_12_12[1].gif
I would like to keep a few in my planted community tank.
Please provide me the best Killi candidates per these criteria:
1. Colorful
2. Small and peaceful
3. Flakes and small pellets feeders.
4. Water temperature around 77F
5. Extremely soft water, 1KH, 1GH
6. Extremely acidic CO2 enrich water, pH low range 6

Any info is greatly appreciated. 23_31_7[1].gif
Any pictures would be much much much appreciated. 32.gif

Thanks

I would recommend Aphyosemion gardneri, it's a good starter fish and very pretty.

Thanks for the suggestions guys but my planted tank is going to be limited to very hardy CO2 resistant fish.
I need to pump too much CO2 into the system that it will choke alot of fish.
Seems like my cardinals, rummy nose, dwarf cories, and otos are about the only ones that may make it but their days are numbered.
The fish are pretty stressed out but that's OK if I don't have any fish because I'm into super rare and expensive plants. Bottom line, it is a planted tank and not a fish tank. Thanks again.
