Hi,
I have an 18 gallon(uk) tank. Temp is 24/25, pH 7.2, live planting, with bogwood and slate caves.
I'm hoping to get:
2 x Red Whiptail Catfish (L010a) (definate)
3 x guppies (1m,2f)
3 x platies (1m/2f)
2 - 3 x cherry barbs
Will this work? Is it overstocked?
I've heard that barbs can be nasty but cherry barbs are ok. Is this true? I've included them as a friend told me this would help to control the number of fry from the livebearers. Again is this right?
The guppies, platies and barbs aren't definate so if anyone has any better suggestions i'd love to hear them.
Also if anyone has experience with the L010a's, i'd be greatful for any advice.
Thank you
