Aquarium Advice Apprentice
Currently I have a 10 gallon tank with 2 German Blue Rams, 4 Harlequin Rasboras, and 3 Amano shrimp.
In the coming weeks I will be getting a 55 gallon tank. I am planning on buying a Rena Filstar XP2 for my filtration. As for stocking the tank, these have been my thoughts so far:
-4 Harlequin Rasboras (from my current 10 gallon)
-1 Redtail Shark
-Firemouth (not sure if one would be best, or multiple)
-School of Tiger Barbs (maybe 8-10)
-School of Cory's (not sure what kind, I'm open for suggestions.)
-Pleco (most likely a BN Pleco)
I'm open to anyone's suggestions of what they think would look good in the tank. I'm planning on leaving the German Blue Rams and the amano shrimp in the 10 gallon.
I'm planning on most likely using driftwood and artificial plants for my decorations, along with plenty of cave areas. Sand would be a better substrate than gravel in this tank, correct?
As for the Firemouths, would a lone Firemouth be best, or several?
Any opinions are appreciated! TIA!
