Aquarium Advice Regular
I've been running my 93 gal cube for about a year now. All of the fish are getting pretty big. I've got:
1 Blood parrot cichlid
1 Red faced severum
1 Electric blue acara
2 Dennison barbs
2 Pictus cats
4 Bristle nose plecos
11 Tiger barbs
Its set up to look like a saltwater tank. I know it looks cheesy, but we like it and the grandkids love it. I do a 50% water change every 2 weeks, and the nitrates run surprisingly low. Less than 20! My wife thinks it looks too empty, and I figured with the bioload where it is I could add more fish. I'm a little concerned about introducing juvenile fish to this tank. The tiger barbs are all over 2 inches. I really have no idea what to add anyway. I'd like something colorful that would inhabit the upper part of the tank, but I'm open to any suggestions.
