Hi there thought i would join up because i need some advice on starting up my tropical freshwater tank, could you please take a look at my proposed fish and see what compatibility is like? I have done a fair bit of research but am getting mixed messages.
Proposed tank 1 - a 200 litre
* A male Siamese fighting fish
* 6+ neon or cardinal tetra
* a smallish plec
* 1 or 2 african dwarf frogs
and i will be open to further suggestions or changes? the tanks i have found are around 200 litres so pretty big but i still am not really sure how many fish you can get in there?
The other fish that interested me were black ghost knife fish, but what other fish would be compatible with these? Also i have heard that they are actually quite boring but i thought they looked cool. Are they a bit too specialist for a beginner though?
If my proposed tank is really stupid then can you suggest a few variations for a big started tank?
