Hi, guys ive just upgraded my tank to a Juwel Rio 180L tank im running a fluval 305 external filter 1000LPH 300w heater set at 25 its planted with around 12 different species of plant and has a sand substrate and slate hides and large bogwood it has quite alot of floor space and loads of middle and top space as the plants are only medium and smaller sizes at the minute with just a couple of big plants cabomba and amazon sword.

Stocking is...

2 x Dwarf blue neon gourami
4 x panda corydoras
3 x sterbai corydoras
2 x guppys
5 x black skirt tetra
1 x BN plec

It sounds alot but the tank looks empty
 
up the numbers of your corys to about 5 of each species and you will enjoy them alot more and they will feel more secure. they are not massive waste producers so wont have a big effect on the bioload :good:
 
yh i agree up the corys to 5 each. i would get a trio of apisto and a shoal of about 10 fish like tetra or rasbora. you could get a few more guppys aswell.
 
Ive added more pandas to make 6 and 3 more sterbai are going in when i find some good ones.

Ive had a read about keyhole cichlids and i like them would i be ok with two? would they be ok with my fish as there quite small also ive got alot of plants and sand substrate so they come up easily would they rip them up?

Would adding these completely stock my tank?

Thanks
 
maybe consider festivum cichlids over the keyholes? you could also think about bolivian rams. If u do go with keyhole cichlids, they will be fine with the other fish you've listed.
 
A caresheet ive read says a minimum of 60gallons for congo tetra shame as they seem a good fish to suit my tank.

I really like the keyholes and festivums il look into the festivums more though.

Thanks
