Hi everyone. I finally got my 60 gallon planted tank cycled and started adding some fish. Not realizing their aggression, I started with 8 Red Minor Tetras. I have since added in 6 Black Skirt Tetras. They are all getting along great and my chemical levels are all good (ph is high due to my hard water around 8.2). I am looking for suggestions on another type of school fish to add that only requires around 3 fish and also a trophy fish to finish it off. I want to add them in a couple of weeks once the other fish are all settled in. Any help is appreciated.

How about 3 male Boesemani rainbows. They would do fine in your higher ph water and are fun to watch as they show off to each other. I had 3 in my 55 gallon years ago and they are beautiful.

I would look into getting a catfish or something for the bottom layer to add some interest. As for the trophy fish; maybe look into getting a blue gourami or the other colour varieties.
