Hello all,

I have a very low tech, planted aquarium with easygrwoing plants like
wisteria, bacopa, banana plants etc. In the tank I have about 12 Black
Widow Tetras, and 3 Buenes Aries Tetras. It is a 46 Gallon Bowfront Tank.

Most of the fish are never seen except for feeding time, and hang out
hiding
in the rocks, wood and plants I have set up.

Can anyone recommend some good tankmates for these fish. Ideally I wanted
Angel fish, but I think the tetras will fin nip. Would like something
larger than the tetras and be mid to top dwellers. Thanks in advance.



Those BA tetras can definitely be nippers.
Without any details of your water, it's hard to narrow down suggestions.
Size being a consideration, along with the ability to exist with your
present population, you could look further into livebearers (but not
mollies), larger characins, barbs, or catfish. If a cichlid is wanted,
check out the rainbow cichlid (Herotilapia multispinosa), festivums
('Cichlasoma' festivum), and the whole groups of Geophagus and Aequidens.
