On advice I'm seeking views for compatable tank mates my Pseudomystus Siamensis and Heteropneustes Fossilis.

I've read a couple of postings by others on this forum which suggest a few tank mates for these species however I'm looking to keep this tank asian only.

Both fish are fairly active and show more in daylight than they previously had (they're both approximately 2 years old). They stick together side by side in the tank. I know both fish can cause issues by devouring smaller/slower moving fish so mountain minnows are definitely out! So I'm looking for advice on suitable tank mates and enviornment to house these two.

Many thanks
Vern

A school of medium-sized barbs (e.g. Puntius filamentosus) should do it.
