Anyone care to offer an opinion on stocking a 75gal for an initial setup.
After making an initial mistake by stocking ten mixed mbuna from Pet Supplies ( I know I've got two to three auratus that everyone tells me to get out of there) I've now decided that I would like a Frontosa. Do you think this tank is big enough? Also if I go that route, what other smaller fish would go with it. This setup is to go in my office and essentially I'm looking for a setup that will not be hard to maintain, will provide a lot of interest for myself and one that will draw attention from others. The seup is as follows: (1) cichlid mix sand as substrate (2) 80lbs of lava rock (3) one Fluval 404 filter (4) ten mixed mbuna (I know that normally these don't go with Frontosa - what to do?) (5) from my old tank - two angels, four neons, one pleco (they'll have to go I'm sure but for the time being seem to be okay in the high pH) Also, what should I be looking to pay for a Frontosa that's small and who's a good source. I'm not necessarily looking for a high quality breeder. What is the minimum number that I can stock. Is one or two okay? All opinions greatly appreciated. |
