Stocking Ideas Pls!

[Little Dipper]

Hi,
new here. Just after some suggestions for the re-stock of my 260 litre Jewel Bowfront.

Having given up keeping Oscars, I've decided to re-stock with community fish. Having bought several, I'm getting a little lost, so would love any ideas. Current stock below ( hope I've not got it to wrong, lfs assured me they would mix!)

10 Neon Tetras
6 Black Neons
6 Harlequins
6 male endlers
6 Cherry Barbs
4 Zebra Danios
6 Leopard Danios
6 Red Eye Tetras
7 tiny Tiger Barbs (2 Green)
2 small Silver Sharks.

Also, now its safe for me to decorate the tank again, I'm soaking bog wood. How long am I looking at before I can add it with out turning my tank tea coloured??

Thanks!

I can confirm that some bogwood never stops leaching. I've been soaking one for a year as an experiment and its still turning the water tea colored in a week. It just depends on the particular piece of wood. WD

The only problems I see with your stocking is the aggression levels. Most of your fish are fairly peaceful fish that really would not bother each other, but the sharks and the tiger barbs will upset that nice balance. You may lose some of the other fish to aggression by the barbs and the sharks.
