Hi all,
Long time since ive posted but i need help (again
) I bought a new Tank which is i think about 50 gallons (+/-5g). A friend of mines has a blue acara which is in a 7gallon tank and really needs to be in a bigger tank so i said i would take it off his hands... The acara is wild fish and really aggressive but is stunning but i dont know what i can stock it with. The acara is around 5inches and i would guess its going to love having an extra 45 gallons to actully swim in, but what would be ok with this fish? I was thinking maybe a female (fish shop said she can get a nice large female for me if i need it) and maybe 2 or 3 firemouths? The ph has to be around the lower part of 7 because its wild...? Is this going to effect what i can stock with this little monster 
?
Looking forward to hearing from everyone and getting some pics on here
