Hi. I was hoping someone would be able to help me with stocking my new 55 gallon tank. I am going to do an aggressive Amazonian or Central American theme. Cichlids. I was wondering if anyone has some stocking ideas.
Trust me when i say i have ample filtration for any fish that can fit in this tank (Fluval 305, 75-gallon HOB, 2x55-gallon HOB) as well as heating and water movement.
What i am really looking for is a setup with one bigger, colorful fish that has a "school" of smaller cichlids that accent it. Like 1 JD and a few convicts or whatever.
Ideas are really appreciated. Also, anyone think i could (not saying i will) keep a Red Devil in this tank without having to upgrade? Or a fully grown FEMALE jaguar cichlid? Alone, obviously. It is only about 11.5 inch (it was stunted a bit from previous owner, but looks normal... Just a bit small.)
