126Usg Tank

[kizno1]

Is there no way at all
Pair Gold sev or rotkiels
5 Redhead tapajo geos
1 plec or whiptail
would work evan if i put in loads of hiding spots?

I do quite like the sound of centrals
would this work
1 jag
1 pair of cons
1 pair of t bars
6 silver dollars

if neither of these will work i might just go for
pair of Gold sev or rotkiels
5 rams
5 plecs or whiptails

If you get as big a tank as you can, i.e. at least the 126g you mentioned, then I see nothing wrong with your first list. Your second one I would not get two Cons, incase they breed. Got no experience of Jags, know they get super aggressive when mature though. Think the T-Bars would be in trouble when the Jag matured. They are not an aggressive cichlid. The Dollars would be fine though.

It does seem as if you have no idea what you want, and I mean that in a nice way don't take that the wrong way. You are overwhelmed with the options, and that is normal. Why don't you take a few trips to some fish shops and see these fish in real life. Take note of the ones you like but don't buy on impulse. Then read up about them when you get home. Once you have a definite tank size, and a really good idea of what you definitely want, then I think we can advise further

Your right i really dont know. Well i do but it just wouldnt be possible to keep all the fish that i like in one tank so have to choose between them. ATM im edging towards the first one because i really want a sev and the geos are really nice aswell.

Well if you get the 126g, you could def have a Sev and some Geos

Thats brilliant.. its still at 99p and it finishes on sunday. it will be a while before i stock it though because i will still need to make a lid and built a wooden cupboard around the stand.

Good luck with the tank, hope you get it

Thanks. Doesnt look like theres much interest so far. I dont think it will go for to much ive been watching a few and most only go for £10-20 and this one odes need a little work.

Hopefully you'll get a bargain then! There never seems to be one around when I've been looking for tanks. I've had to buy all three of my tanks from new

Haha. I brough all my tanks new apart from the 30G but they where only small so didnt cost much. I just saw this and thought for 99P evan if i do have to spend a fair bit of money doing it up its still alot cheaper than brand new. Thanks for all your help :]
