I am getting closer to setting up my 38g (not close enough though ), but I have already planned my stocking and just wanted to get some feedback.
The tank is 36" long, 12" wide...and about 18 inches high I think (haven't measured it lately). Its basically the same height and width as a 29g, except 6 inches longer.
Anyways, its going to be heavily planted, high light, pressurized CO2, with a Rena XP2 cannister and Stealth heater.
My stocking plan is:
8 Pseudomugil furcatus (Furcata rainbows)
8 Threadfin rainbows
10 Corydoras habrosus
2-3 Parotocinclus jumbo (Pitbull plecos, LDA25)
pair of German Rams and/or
trio of Apistos caucatoides
So, what do you all think? Will it work, or is it overstocked? It sounds like alot to me, but I don't think it is.
I wanted some sort of centerpiece fish and had thought about some Sparkling gouramis, but I am not sure about them. Since the rainbows will most likely be middle-surface dwellers, I think I'll just go with the dwarf cichlids (if having both is ok...or just one type if its not ok).
Any comments, concerns, changes or feedback?
BTW, both Rainbows get a max of 2 inches...so they aren't the big ones.
Thanks!
