have an aquarium stand leftover from a long time ago. its a real nice one. although id like to go bigger i dont have the room the stand is a 55 gallon. its longer not a tall kind. anyways. i havent gotten the aquarium yet but i was curious how i might set it up. its been a long time since ive done this so need a little help. was thinking of stocking something like this...
x6 glo fish
x5 tiger barbs
x1 rainbow shark
x1 pleco (algea eater one right?)
x1 maybe some kind of shrimp?
from what i understand this gives them all space glo fish swim near top. tigers middle. shark on the bottom and should maybe be big enough? i know 55g is the minimum for any kind of shark as even the smallest ones get about 6"? thats why i picked the rainbow though because i dont think it gets quite as large as some of the others. even if this isnt overstocked would anyone have any better ideas as to what might be neat?
want to keep a real natural looking habitat. like actual rocks stacked up, live plants, little open area in the middle etc. just curious if anyone knows of some different fish species that are active look unusual or would be cool to have. Thanks!
