Is The New Stocking Okay?

[snake007]

My yellow bellied slider has moved into a 150 gallon and Im going to stock the 60 gallon, here's the list;

1x Firemouth
1x Convict
12x Tiger Barb
1x Red Tail Shark
2x Breeding Pair Bristlenose Pleco
1x Elephant Nose

Is this compatible and will it fully stock a 60 gallon long?

NO. The elephant nose Needs to be with a less active set up, with less agression

Okay scrap the elephant nose, what about everything else?

Everything else looks like a good stock list. It should make for a nice setup!

What size tank is your 60 Gallon mate?

 

[phishyphil]

The stocking looks fine other wise mate. YOur RTBS, Firmouth, Convict an Bristlenose will all grow to around the 6" Mark, and the tigers to around 2".

Suggested Basic Tank Set up would be:
PH: 6.5-7.5
Temp: 25 degrees
Tank Size: 60 Gallon
Tank Length: Minimum of 4' for the sharks swimming space

Make sure yoi have a lot of hiding places for the Bristlenoses, there shy, and will only really venture out at night
