I didnt pick teh exact type of cory or rainbowfish, but is it a good general idea? I might decrease angelfish to 2 fish. Fish will be planted

10 congo tetras
12 cory catfish (any reccomandations?)
4 rainbow fish ( any recomandations?)
2 keyhole cichlids
4 bolivian rams

I would up the rainbows to 6 and its upto you which you get but with that mix I would do panda cories and turquoise rainbows

*edit also I would maybe consider some more interesting cichlids than keyholes and rams? Its a great sized tank and to be honest I dont event think your at your full stock. What stock level did ##144### give you?

The stocking calculator gave me 125 % but its okay to go above it. Any good cichlid ideas?

 

[Wills]

In a tank that size the obvious ones would be things like Rotkeil Severums or Geophagus Red Head Tapajo but there are a lot of options in a 75g, in my 65 I have Heros Severus (mouthbrooder), Krobia sp. Rio Xingu, Leopoldi Angels, Geophagus sp.Tocantins and a female Nicaraguan cichlid (in pic below) But things like firemouths, blue acara and both of their relative species as well would work in here. Dwarf pikes would work.

Also just a thought but rather than having the congos and the rainbows how about a larger group of just one species? Once again that site is way off the mark with the stocking.
