just ordered the first part I needed to convert my 75 gallon over to fish. I should be getting the Tanganyika Rock background from Aquaterra next week.
One item down, many others to go. But the rest is much less expensive.
no low tech... no plants with big fish... oscars and tinfoil barbs... planted... forget about that... wife would kill me
Sorry, cog, both the Oscars and Tinfoils will be too big for a 75. Both reach better than 14 inches, and the barbs do best in schools of six or more. Oscars seem to do better in groups, if they are added all together. Not enough elbow room in a 75.
Try dwarf cichlids and congo tetras. Your wife will dig them.

dave im putting the oscars and tinfoils into a 120... not 75
Sorry Cog, mis read. Had the original poster's 75 in my head.
Gonna be stocking up on the Romaine lettuce and leaf spinach for those tinfoils, eh? About 80 percent of their diet should be vegetable-based. Oscars don't mind a bit of the green either.
Adult tinfoil barbs are one of my favorite fish, but since I keep planted tanks . . .
