Aquarium Advice Regular
Hi all, I thought I posted this but maybe I didn't.
OK I have the 55 gallon up and running and do to an equipment problem in my little tank I had to put my fishies right into the big tank without cycling. I did add a 3 week old filter from another tank though to help it along.
So once everything is stable I want to add more fishies.
Currently I have
1 african cichlid (lake malawi, yellow dude)
3 zebra Danios which I would take back to the store if I could catch them
4-5 guppies, they wont be around long
a dozen or so feeder goldies, I am sure only a few will make it past the cichlids when I get them
a few little itty bitty snails
I need a pleco butt hey only one they had was like 10 inches long and they wanted 25.00 bucks for him, so I will probably get one in the next town over.
I would like cichlids (lake malawi), but what else goes with them?
My husband says he wants an angel fish and didnt seem to understand that cichlids arent into having angel fish as tankmates... so is there anything similar that I could put in to please him?
If you have photos of what i should add, or links to photos please include them, thanks!
Thanks so much for your input
