Center Piece For A 30 Gal

[lilfishie]

Right i am after a largeish center piece fish for my 30 Gal, i am having a bit of a move about on my stocking due to a new tank so n my 30 i will have

11 Copeland Tetra
7 Cherry Barbs
1 RTBS (think he will cause issues when considering, fully grown but peaceful)
2 SAE
2 Female BN
1 Female L052

the tank is just shy of 3ft in lenght

firstly I'd look to rehome the RTBS - they need bigger tanks anyway.

Then maybe....

Dwarf gourami
Bolivian Ram
Many of the Apistogramma dwarf cichlids (Look for cockatoo cichlid)

Really? i rescued the RTBS and asked before hand on here and was told a 30Gal was big enough for him, i think i may just up my shoals and keep 'nipper' as the center piece

SAEs might need something bigger too, mine fly around my tank, extremely fast and they grow like mad too. not sure what else i can chip in really, its all down to taste

 

[XeroTolerance]

Yeah I agree. The SAE's and the RTBS need bigger homes than they have now.

Good job i'm planning an upgrade then

 

[XeroTolerance]

That's good news.

 

[lilfishie]

And it also means FUN.

I'm cycling my 10 gallon tank and I already want a bigger one. I just need the space though.
