Fish Crazy
Hi
I am getting a new tank (just ordered it!!) and have a few ideas for some fish I would like to have, but need some advice on who can go with who etc. Asked in lfs and was told i could have some larger shoaling fish with some of the cichlids but weren't really clear about which ones.
So here's the guys I like:
oscar
jack dempsey
green terror
convicts
green severum
festivum
tiger barbs
congo tetra
plecs
I'm guessing my tank will be too small for an oscar and other fish together?
Any suggestions of combinations would be great, please suggest any other fish I haven't listed as well
thanks!
oh I forgot to say we'd like to move a pair of kribs in there too, we got them as adults about two months ago and they came from a tank that had a pair of GTs in and some other larger cichlids, where they all got on fine.
