What do you guys think on stocking?

Hello can I check stocking with you guys on the following for a 96 litre tank? It will have one filter 1200LPH with sand substrate and plenty live plants

5 Habrosus cories
5 panda cories
8 galaxy rasbora
5-10 normani lampeyes

Im thinking of adapting the filter so that the galaxies dont get blown all over the place. Someone elsewhere mentioned to have 15-20 galaxies and 20 lamps!! I think this may be a tad overstocking?

From what I can see, you shouldn't have a problem there at all Very Happy

Maybe not 20 Lampeyes but 10 would be fine thumbup

Thanks Van! I thought 20 might be abit overkill.... thumbup

I agree, 20 seems a few too many, but 10 should definitly be alright :D

sounds good to me. i would have the 10 lamp eyes and 15-20 galexy rasbora if you have the money they are quite abit but they look amazing an massive shoals.

Well my 10 lamps are coming to me in a week or so and the 8 galaxies are coming tomorrow. Someone near has them as well so next payday may get some more fresh blood!

sounds good? have you though about adding somethink a little bigger like a catfish or dwarf cichlid just as a centerpiece?

by **lilacamy931** on Sat Mar 06, 2010 6:20 pm

Im happy for this tank to be a mini piece! The other tank has bigger fish, may add some later but for now with this stocking will be happy Smile

Thanks for the suggestion though hon

fair enough :] instead of 20 galexy rasbora you could have 10 and then 10 ember tetras or some ottos
