Stocking Ideas

[Monty-2010]

Hi Guy's,

Can anyone offer any suggestions on what i could add in amongst the following mix...

So far at the moment i've got
6 Ellioti's
6 Rainbow cichlids
1 Parrot Cichilid
1 Plec
2 Opal gourami (soon to be going)
1 Golden gourami (soon to be going)
3 golden barbs
4 Odessa barbs

the tank is a Juwel rio 400

thanks all

P.s. any advice on an external filter would be good...

Stick all of that into www.aqadvisor.com and see what capacity is left...

However with that many ellioti and rainbow cichlids you're asking for some pairings so I wouldn't add any more fish....just my opinion

Along with the new severum you just got, I would say you are well and truly stocked. You could up the barb numbers to make their groups larger (up to 6 of each), but that would be it.
