Switching 29 Gallon Tank To 55 Gallon.

ok well i changed a few things. i am keeping tigers. my LFS have gotten expensive and sell discus for $70(to expensive). so instead im going to make an amazing planted tank. i will keep my tigers as i have an angel with them now and they ignore it completly. so whole new stocking.


substrate: eco something for base nutrients for plants covered in very small grain gravel. with driftwood and tons of plants under 4 54 watt bulbs with CO2 diffuser at 78F.

Fish:
-6 angel fish?
-6 tiger barbs (with angel for long time and ignore it
-12 cardinals
-1 albino BN
-6 serpea tetras
-6 juli cories
- 2-3 pearl gouramis (2 female,1male)
-(any other suggestions or is that good)
again i changed it all because it was just to expensive with discus.

whats the rule of thumb an inch of fish per gallon? so take the fishs total lengh as to a website that tells u how big it gets and go from there for example a 8 inch green terror would need at least 8 gallons of water just for himself thats what all the lfs around here tell u
