Hmmm Thinking

[Ace Of Spades]

This is just therotically, what would you put into a Rio 300 few rules though

These fish are not allowed:

• Betta's
• Endlers
• Guppies
• Platys
• Mollys
• (Any Livebearer really)
• Pleco's
• Dwarf Cichlids
• African Cichlids

Any idea's would be appreciated, its in the front room so Id like it to be something colorful, Interesting to watch.

An oscar would be a nice fish to have in there.
Green Terror's, Jack dempsy, texas cichlid could also look nice.
Jag cichlid also could look amazing.

Im going on 17 with not enough income for SW otherwise I would of done it ages ago, My bad not mentioning that strictly FW/Brackish...
I was thinking JD, GT, Shoal of SD and a few other fishes.

Discus, Huge Shoal of Neons, and Corys - But I dont know how hard discus are.....Tank has been set up for over 4months.

Brackish - Mono's, Archerfish, Chromide, But Im already getting Puffers so ill already have a brackish tank.

Need some more suggestions

FO Marine would be about the same cost as a brackish tank

Only syno's I like are petricola, rest are ugly. And I dont think they are really suited to a set up like that.

Hmmm, Id like a Porky....

That's what I was going to suggest

Snowflake eel(echidna nebulosa) and another fish to go w/it.
