Hey Everyone,
I have had a 36 gallon cichlid tank for a while and it just didn't work out for me because all of my cichlids kept on hiding no matter what I did. So I gave them to a fish store for someone else to have some better luck. Now I am hoping for a another community aquarium like my 55 gal. I would like this tank to include neon tetras. My 55 gallon is slightly overstocked but i have two bio wheel 350 filters when the tank only came with one. I need to figure out what fish to move from that one to my smaller one.
But my 55 gallon has large fish like Giant Danios and I don't want to move them to the smaller one because they will eat the smaller neon tetras. (examples: large botia, large gourami, angelfish)
I would have liked to move my 5 cory catfish and two small angelicas botia loaches but i am never going to catch them in a large planted tank. (trust me i already tried for almost an hour)
So i was thinking about moving this catfish but i don't know what species he is and he looks big enough to eat them. (4" long) (picture included) (please help identify) (think he is Synodontis Nigrita).
Will this work????
I am also going to have a large Pleco and maybe a Gourami in there too
Thanks for all replies in advance
