So I wanted a tropical semi-aggressive aquarium and a red-tail shark. The LFS recommended a 30g tank that's 14inches wide (it's smallest side). He told me that it would be good for the fish that grows up to 6 inches... After all my research I have since learned otherwise.
Currently my tank is stocked with 6 Tiger barbs and 6 Zebra Danios. I have a large piece of Malyasian driftwood that stands that creats a large cave against one corner of the tank. A medium sized cave. A bunch of Mollywart that my barbs constantly peck at and an Anubias. I currently have black gravel and plan to add just a little more to better bury the molleywart. I'm thinking I'll add another cave and a sword plant.
In a few weeks or so my tank should be ready to add some bottom feeders. I'm thinking about placing some ghost crabs, but I'm word about the Barbs attacking them. I'm not sure what to put in as a bottom feeder. Some recommendiations would be helpful. I'm still PISSED I wanted a Red Tail Shark SOOOOOooooo BAD!
