Final (I hope) list for 6 foot tank
Hi guys,
I've had some time to think about this, so I'm wanting to check this should be OK (tank is 6 foot, 540 litres):
8 discus, all different
25 cardinals
1 pair Bolivian rams
3 pair blue rams
1 pair gold rams
4 pair emperor tetras
2 male peppermint bristlenose
4 female peppermint bristlenose
1 pair royal whiptail catfish
Is this bioload OK?
I'm running the overhead filter (Aquaone AR180) and the Eheim ProII 2028. I should have the CO2 system up before the fish go in, ands it will be planted. I'm planning lots of caves, pots and I've got a 4 1/2 foot piece of driftwood (thanks Seaview!).
Will the tankmates get on OK in those numbers? I know many of them can be territorial within their own species.
Any other suggestions guys? Will this be OK in the top levels, or will it be a bit bare?
I thought about a pair (or 2) of Apistos, but read that they might need a lower temperature and they may have TB. Is this true, or could I fit in a pair or 2?
Do I need some corys to turn over the sand, or would they just eat any eggs that were laid (more than the bristlenose would)? I know I can't breed discus in this setup, but was hoping to get some of the emperor tetras going.
Sorry about the long post, and TIA,
DiscusEden
