I'm trying to decide what I need to add to fill in my current stocking and what I maybe still should add. I would like advice and options please.
125 Gallon Tank Current:
10 Guppys (8 Females & 2 Males)
3 (maybe more) Guppy Fry
7 Adult Corys (3 Bronze & 4 Pepper)
3 Juvie Corys (Peppers)
3 Otos
2 Kuhli Loaches
1 Dwarf Sunset Fire Gourami
I also have 2 Female Sunset Fire Gourami's I need to pick up from the LFS.
Now, I know I need more Otos, but how many should I have in a tank this big? I was thinking 6, but is that enough?
I'm trying to increase to 7 each of bronze and pepper then I plan on adding 7 Panda and 7 of another rare more expensive species as I am starting to get a good hang of breeding corys (I currently have 20+ fry in my 10 Gallon. ).
I know I need to fill in my Kuhli Loaches and I figured another 4 would make a good group of 6.
Now, I need a smaller fish that will eat snails. I know many people are going to say Clown Loaches, and I would love some clown loaches, but they just don't fit in with this tank. At 12" they could end up tearing my plants to pieces and with the characters/personalitys I have read about on this site I don't think I woudl have the heart to give them away and their is no guarantee I could have a tank setup for them by that time.
I'm also thinking another trio of Dwarf Gouramis (Blue Neons), but what else should I add?
Thanks,
Larry
