Default Could I have more fishes?

Could I add something to first and second tank in this thread?

Both are missing some swimming shoal, but is that my only adding option? And what could be nice species?

Thank you very much about ideas.

No opinions on fish, I'll leave that to more experienced people. But the tanks, all of them, look GREAT! And BTW I liked the vals at the water level in the first one. I have that in my 20 gallon.

Pick your two favorite rasboras or tetras and add a school of each.

But you dont necessarily need schools of fish... you could get a pair of gouramis or rams...

You could add a school in the tank with the dario dario (The second one I believe). Leave the third tank alone. I wouldn't add any to the first either with unknown fish types. PlLus the apistos may not take well to them.

Thanks to you who answered.

Lexus: There is just my problem. I can't think of any shoal fish I would want. Except too big fishes.

Simpte. Do you mean gastromyzon by unknown fishtypes? I know type and that they are peaceful, jejune and 5-6cm seems to be length they stop growing. They are from borneo and look much like gastromyzon ridens but that species shoud not ever been brought in aquarium hobbyists accessibility. I personally think that shoal would be good to apistos tank. That would stimulate them to take care of their offspring better, apistos I mean. Nearby fish store has asked me to churn out them some borelliis so...
