Stocking Options For 275 Gallon

[dcj38]

Clown Loaches would be fine with oscar... I would keep your stocking list as you have it, but no more.
1x Lutino Oscar
1x Tiger Oscar
1x Jack Dempsey
4x Clown Loaches
3x Bala Sharks
That would be absolutely fantastic!

Thats a massive tank.. How much did you pay for the set up?

I would get a neon.

Someone mentioned a bichir. Are bichir's allowed in the US? I know snakeheads arent.
And i doubt a bichir will be fine with an oscar.

Ill keep everyone updated and post pics as soon as there are fish in there
Im guessing 3-4 more days until i am ready to add fish. Ill go check my water conditions now.

If im not overstocked can i add a clown pleco? And i still need to know that info on the bichir

No, the oscar and JD would rip a clown pleco apart.

if you get full grown clown loaches they may be ok

I guess ill drop the plec but i can keep the loaches right? Ill show the pics once i put the fish in

just out of curiosity..... how much would a tank like that cost me to make?? i've always wanted a REALLY big tank but obviously buying a 275gallon tank from a store wold be Awful pricey..... so maybe i'll build one......

U would have to get fully grown clown loaches to put in there as they grow very slowly and would prob be a lunch at some stage durin the J,Ds growth. I think I'm right, not sure about the the J.Ds rate of growth tho. Sorry if i'm wrong.

It costed me $800. I got it for half the price because:
a) I am a long-term customer and buy a lot from them
B) I am there official German Blue Ram supplier. My rams breed a lot and my fry go to them, and they make a lot of money from that.

Oscars are quite peaceful as cichlids go. I doubt they'd even touch the plec.

But the JD may cause problems with all your other fish (even the oscar).
