Hey. I seeded a 90g with about 120g-150g worth of filter gunk over about a week. The tank is ready to go and the fish in the tank prior are now in there. (Ammonia is 0, Nitrite readings are good, Nitrate readings are good). I am still watching these levels diligently, though, and won't be putting anything else in for at least 2 weeks to make sure everything is good; but everything is stable, and it should be cycled given the readings are consistent. 90g has two ac110 filters.
Right now I have a German Blue Ram, three Diamond tetras, and someone has given me a small featherfin they no longer wanted and if I didn't take it it'd be at risk of flushing... I have a LFS that accepts fish, and I know how big Featherfins get: So, will he eventually eat the Diamond tetras? Would it be in the best interest of my tetras to give him to the LFS?
Otherwise, I'm hoping for a community tank with one or two centerpiece fish.. given big fish eat small fish, that's going to be a difficult venture. (I have no plans for anything too small like Cardinal Tetras or Neon Tetras, and want to get another three Diamonds for a school).
So, any suggestions, and advice on the Featherfin? I just didn't want it to be flushed, so if I need to give him away I'm perfectly ok with that.
Once that issue is out of the way, stocking suggestions?
Thanks in advance! I've done as much research as I can, but I find forums like these help.
