10 it is Toolman. Seems like a nice round number to start.

Thanks Reygan2, I am really happy with the way it's turning out.

Filter is Fluval fx4

I do plan on upping the numbers, but would 15 or 16 small fish be ok to add when cycle is complete? Then slowly add more each week, maybe 4 or 5 till fully stocked?

How many fish can I safely add when my fishless cycle is complete? The tank is 75 gallons and I have been dosing to bring the ammonia to 4ppm. I hoping to add 5 or 6 corys, 5 serpae tetras and 5 lemon tetras.

Tank is 75 gallons. Right now I am planning on stocking it with Oto, Cory, Tetras and hoping a mix of snails and shrimp. Tank will be light to medium planted. Will the fluval 406 be plenty of filtration? Would the fluval fx4 be overkill?

The only warning was the red tail shark jumps so the tank need a top.

No aquarium yet, but I think I am ready to finally get one. So my question is does this stocking work? I read that certain kinds of fish are happier/better kept in groups. Does this grouping work? Will the the green, albino and tiger barbs group up? Same with the corys, will the pepper and panda...

Time and money are not a problem. Research, I've done tons of that with tons more to do. I even printed out 7Enigma's writeup on fishless cycle to help me out.

Does your tank sit perfectly flat on the stand? Does the stand feel stable when the tank is full? My tank doesn't sit flat on the stand. I can slide a quarter under 1 front corner and 1 back corner on opposite side of tank.

I was wondering if anyone had some opinions and experience with this setup? Would this be to big for someone with no aquarium experience? I have already purchased the aquarium and stand but am starting to have second thoughts. First, I have my doubts about the stand. The stand is really light...

Nobody can help me out. Something in Plano, Garland or anywhere in the metroplex? I live about 45 minutes east of the Dallas and just looking for a few places that are better than others.

Can someone from the Dallas area point me to some good lfs. I presently do not have a tank but have wanted one for sometime. Right now I am looking at the Topfin 40 gallon or Aqueon 46 gallon. I have also been checking out craigslist. Looking to setup a community tank.
