Rainbow Shark menace

Rainbow Shark menace

Setup: 4 feet (4x1.5x1.5ft, 65gallon) low-tech Planted Tank, Stocking: 15 Glofish Danios, 6 denisoni barbs + Trio of white mollies. (double top filters, no heater, lights on 8hr timer)

Problem: My Rainbow shark (2 years old) has become a terror in the tank and has killed off many platies and Glo widow tetras in the past 2 months. He has chased the denisons so much that now they only stay in the left corner.

Efforts: I tried to give him hiding spaces to reduce aggression but to no avail. I have decided to rehome him if nothing works.

Query: Suggest other centrepiece and schooling fish to add. I'm based in Goa. I'm considering fish like corydoras/loaches, cardinal tetra and black/ green neon tetra.

Which to get from Australia?

My family is coming back from Australia in a couple months and I intend to get a watch from there. Budget is from 150 upto 400AUD

I prefer it to be sapphire crystal, just for longevity. Dont have a preference for automatic, as i already have 6 watches in rotation, and cant bother to set the time always.

Solar Quartz is good to have, regular quartz will also do fine.

I have shortlisted these 2 models, as I havent seen Orient being sold in India, and they appear to be VFM products .

Suggest any others for consideration, if not these. Prioritize those which are either very expensive in india or not available.
