Would This Stocking Work?

[mrvillicus]

Again im creating a stocking list...

12 columbian tetra
2 firemouth cichlid
4 angelfish

200ltr 50us gal tank 4ft x 1ft

all pond solutions 1000lph external filter

Hmmm, althugh i dont keep the fish you suggest im thinking that 4 angels and 2 firemouths may be a bit much as all become pretty large fish and can be very aggressive, especially when spawning and in a 200 ltre tank there isnt much room. Also, how tall is it as you no doubt aware Angels do require a tall tank.
Like i said i dont keep them but just throwing things out there as so to speak!!
Then again, im sure someone on here will have a definitive answer for you!! .

Thanks mate, think im just going to go for firemouth cichlids without the angels as your right, my tanks is no where near big enough!

I was also debating firemouths along with a blue Acara (just one of either!) as a focal fish for my tank but am still undecided. Just added some GBR's and Bolivians so just going to see how they go before making a final decision!!
You will have to post some pics up when you sorted bud!!
