Hey Bill

My water is pretty similar to yours. I have kept Boesemanis b4 but gave them
away as they just seem like dozy buggers to me! They are very quick and make
feeding for other fish difficult, they're complete gluttons. Boesemanis are
nice, but I could'nt eat a whole one!

The Neon dwarfs are brilliant, I have 3 of these in with my Rams and
bristlenose and they seem to get along no worries. Beautiful colouring
aswell. You could probably keep more than half a dozen of em in a 55g. By
your description of other tank inhabitants I would definitely go for the
Neon Dwarfs. HTH, Good luck with your choice!
