I know I think I have written that I am buying a 75 gal in my signature... but for some reason, they are REALLY hard to find where I live. But I did see a 90gal, so I might buy that. Could a pair of Severums fit in a 90gal tank that is otherwise lightly stocked with schools of Serpae and Bleeding Heart Tetras, a Sailfin Pleco, and some Cories? Some people have a pair of Severums in their 75, but others recommend 100gal+ for a pair... thanks.
 
Whats the dimensions? Generally speaking you should be ok with a 90g, depends if its longer/wider rather than taller.
 
Possibly, but I would not advise dithers. One could fit in there with dithers and a bristlenose. Maybe some rainbows as dithers. But that would only be if you just had one severum.
 
Comes out around 99usg, yes, I would say two should be ok, of course it depends on their temprement, but size wise, I dont see a problem, the dithers will ok too, plec might be a bit big once full grown though.
 
If it is 99 gallons, then I would say that 2 severums would be fine, with some rainbows also. And what do you mean saying that the pleco would get toobig. A bristlenose gets 4-6 inches.
 
There is no problem at all except one......... plecos can be a bit big once full grown but some can not only grow big some can grow to a scary size, enjoy your severum!
 
It would be fine...With space for plenty of others, sevs generally aren't one of the brawlers, but you may get the odd one that is.Just like you could get a huge sev which grows to 12"
I wouldn't choose a bristle nose though, plenty of other more unusual species which should cohabit with them.

It was just the first thing that came to my mind, I would probally chose something different also.
