You want to see my tank? Have you thought about painting the background? It will hide the back side of the chairs etc.

Stingrays are more on the difficult level IMO.

I spent a lot of time and money on my tank and setup. There African cichlids mixed. Then I have some loaches, pleco and a feather fin. Oh and a synodontis.

Require? Clean water and hard water. A high pH. 8.0 range. There aggressive fish also.

Yes they are and I wouldn't encourage doing what I did. I have all kinds. Frontosa, yellow labs. Blue cobalts, johanni, peacocks and I mixed in tropheous as well.

 

[Jefe]

Why not?

 

[Convict2161]

Why not?

I have a mixed bag and have had a lot of aggression issues leading to deaths. I'm overstocked and improperly stocked. To give you advice on stocking with my stock in mind would be wrong.

Be smart when stocking. I wouldn't want anyone to have the problems I had.
