I want to set up my empty 55 gallon tank again (already have an 87, 30, and 5 gallon setup). Anyway I wanted to hear some thoughts on what type of tank I should do! I have barbs, some skirt tetra, pictus cats, eels and kribensis cichlids in my 87. Smaller tetras, some corys, and a rainbowshark in my 30. The 5 gallon has some ADFs.
I am thinking for this new tank I like either angels or discus. Discus are super pricey so I am hesitant to blow hundreds of dollars on just 5-6 fish. ? I also reallllly like corys, but some smaller loaches could be cool. I ALSO really love rummy nose tetras, german blue rams and diamond tetras, none of which I already have.
What to do, what to do?! Let me know your thoughts and if there is maybe another fish I might be overlooking that could make a cool addition to a new tank!
I plan on using media from the canister filter on my 87 gallon in the new tank to speed up the cycle. Any thoughts on how long this might take on a large scale? I did it for my 30 gallon and it seemed to work pretty well!
Thanks! (Officially have MTS over here)
