55 Gallon Tank full of Easy to breed fish
I have a 55 Gal Livebearer tank (not selling or giving away fry) It has been cycled (fishless) and I went to the LFS to pickup some live bearers I basically got a set 3femals and 1 male of each of the following, Guppies, Swordtails, platies, and mollies.
my platies and guppies have already dropped a load of fry in the last 2 days which im excited about so far (i just hope more get eaten or my 55gal will fill quickly.
On to the actual question :
I was reading about Neolamprologus multifasciatus and wondered if these would be something I could add to a sparsely planted live bearer tank with the above fish already in there. I know i would need to change at least part of the tank to be a sand bottom (i have used playsand in the past so thats not a problem) and add shells for them..
as I get more money for plants I intend on buying a 55gal aquascaping package or if I have half sand bottom i would go with a smaller package of plants. from (freshwateraquariumplants.com) whom I have bought plants from in the past.
any input is appreciated.
