    I believe that your correct and I may have casualties there, I am anticipating that. I do plan on having a well planted tank and plenty o' cover. It will be an experiment to see the result. I don't plan to buy fully grown fish, and am hopeful that if I add everyone at the same time it may work.

I think the synodontis were the ones that were flagged by the stocking calculator as too high of PH levels for the other fish you recommended. I think I am gonna use your model for stocking that you have provided me because of the colorful...

You have provided me with...
