Decisions to make.
I used to have 14 tanks up and running. As I lost fish and consolidated tanks, I've gotten myself down to a more manageable five. I'm interested in setting up one more tank, a 30 gallon long that I have stored in my closet. I have two options that I am considering for this tank.
Option 1:
I haven't had much luck with Apistos but I was thinking of giving them another shot, specifically the A. cacatuoides. I was leaning towards keeping one or two males with multiple females. Other tankmates would include a school of cardinal or neon tetras and an Ancistrus.
This tank will be peat filtered.
Option 2:
Threadfin rainbows. This would basically be a species only tank with perhaps some Kuhli loaches as he only other residents.
Thoughts? All suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bryan

ROFL!! That's why I asked it here.
I'm biased towards discus too and already have a 75 gallon with discus in it. Also, have a two tanks full of angels, already have rams and have some Tanganyikan tanks too.
I'm leaning more towards the Apistos.

:P Okay, so that's two votes for Apistos and well...more discus. I had to drain a 55 gallon this week because the centerbrace cracked all of the way through and I didn't want the tank shattering before I could order a new part from All-glass.
Apistos and Discus are a thought but from what I have seen so far, Apistos like cooler temps (mid-70's) than the discus do.
Maybe I should just get the 55 fixed and get more discus.

okay I think you know what I would vote for but since it wasn't on your list of choices I think I would go along with everyone else.
