Many months ago I posted a thread asking a similar question, however, my interesting in fish-keeping had come at a poor time (I could do little more than a betta in a 10 gallon) due to financial issues (I am a student) and a lack of space.
Both of those problems are not as major as they used to be now.
I have done my research on all the fish that I wish to add and cannot see any issues with my stocking ideas. I have ran my stocking idea through AqAdvisor which tells me that the following can be stocked in a 55 gallon, I am, however, a bit skeptical...
There fish are as follows:
1x Festivum cichlid (I originally wanted a larger tank with a Severum, but decided against it as these are beautiful fish and are a bit smaller)
1x Angel fish (Just the common ones sold in the pet store)
6x Emerald Green Cories
1x German Blue Ram (Electric)
1x Bolivian Ram (Butterfly)
6x Diamond Tetras
So, in a planted, sand substrate tank, how will I be going for space?
It is not an impossibility to get a 75 gallon, but it will make things harder on me space wise.
Should I switch the Angel for a second Festivum? I hear they like a little of their own company.
The fishes needs come before my wants, so please, let me know of any flaws in my plan.
