95g stocking

[bigbanker]

Filters: aqua clear 70 & fluval 305
Lights: HOT5 dual with one plant and one sunlight
Heavy planted.

Current stock
-5 roseline sharks (juvenile)
-2 three spot gouramis (adult)
-4 Australian rainbow (adult)
-7 Colombian tetras (adult)
-6 neon tetras
-6 cherry barbs

I was thinking of raising the neons and cherry barbs to 15/10 respectively and changing the Australian for six bosemanii.

To me that sounds a great, colourful stock!

I'd remove one gourami and 4 of the sharks

Why is that?

 

[Samzter]

I'm guessing the sharks get too big and will be aggressive with that many of them and with the gourami probably aggression related issues as well

Yes samtzer is correct

 

[bigbanker]

Roselines are actually pretty docile. They don't get bigger than 5 inches or so and are recommended in groups

I've even seen them (roseline) kept successfully for a few years with discus. The gouramis I have pretty much stay to themselves

Looking at doing a revamp on my stocking ... thinking a BGK. I know the cherry barbs and neons will have to go...
Any other possible ideas?

Sorry just got back from holiday. Rose line sharks would be fine IMO

Alrighty ..... Petsmart has the bgk one sale for a bit over 8 bucks. Any other stocking ideas
