Stocking Query

[Scunny]

I've been checking out quite a lot of fish (online, im away from home at the moment so cant get to my LFS) and have strayed away from the idea of a convict tank.

What do you guys this to the following stocking list for a Juwel Vision 180;

1 Royal Panaque (my LFS has a brazilian one, and it looks stunning, but will it grow too big for my tank?)
1 Bulldog catfish
6 Albino Corys
1 RTBS
5 Angelfish (i've heard 5 is the minimum if i dont want one bullying all the rest)
7 or 8 Guppys

So what do you guys think?
Will the Royal Panaque grow too big?
Do i have too many bottom dwelling fish?
Will the RTBS, Angels, and Guppys get along?

Thanks guys

Is that 180 in liters or gallons?If it's liters I'd say 4 angelfish max and that list is ok.

 

[Scunny]

yeah its litres.

Thanks for the help

anybody else want to give me feedback?

Also, would my two Bolivian Rams be able to go in here? They just look a bit out of place in my other tank.

Just been looking around and im starting to get the impression that a Bulldog Catfish might be hard to get. I've never seen one in a shop either. Would i be better with a Bristlenose?

Bumpety bump bump

Your tank is almost the same size as mine and I have the cories, rams and angels. They all get along just fine. As for the RTBS, I was thinking about getting one, but they can be a bit aggressive as they get bigger and I'd worry about how they'd treat the rams and cories, esp the cories. I decided on a black ghost instead.

 

[Scunny]

yeah i did thought about that, but im not too bothered about the corys as i have an amazing set in my other tank. My Rams are also quite happy in my other tank, so they also dont have to move.

By black ghost do you mean a clack ghost knife fish? Can't help bu watch them for ages at the LFS but im not too keen on the 'odd' looking fish (no offence).

Yes, a black ghost knife. I was distracted and didn't finish my thought there!

I love the look of the RTBS, awesome fish.
