by **kizno1** on Sun Aug 29, 2010 1:57 pm

Ill have to think about that one sounds like a good deal lol

by **kizno1** on Sun Aug 29, 2010 2:18 pm

Im thinking of adding a black ghost knife fish but not sure how the BNs will do as they grow 18-22" long
the plan so far is
2 rotkeil severums (will have to get 4 to start with and wait for 2 to pair)
1 chocolate cichlid
5 redhead tapajo geos
4 BNs +fry
1 banjo catfish (might get a few more not sure yet)
4 Sturisoma festivum

by **kizno1** on Sun Aug 29, 2010 6:23 pm

Im going to get
1 black ghost knife fish
1 female Nicaragua Cichlid
aswel as the stocking in my last post.

by **kizno1** on Mon Aug 30, 2010 10:00 pm

Im going to go for 10 emperor tetra as dithers.
so the full stock will be
2 rotkeil severum
1 chocolate cichlid
5 redhead tapajo geophagus
4 bns plus fry
1 banjo catfish
4 Sturisoma festivum
1 black ghost knife fish
1 female Nicaragua Cichlid
10 emperor tetra

by **Nataliey** on Mon Aug 30, 2010 10:18 pm

Just took a look at them all and the black ghost knife fish look really interesting kinda fish...different thumbup

by **kizno1** on Mon Aug 30, 2010 10:22 pm

I like them. Im still a little wary of how the BNs will bo but alot of people think it will be ok and they take agers to grow anyway so wont have to worry for a while. They can get to 22" though so big fish. Theres loads of different types but not many will fit or are fairly common.

by **Nataliey** on Mon Aug 30, 2010 10:26 pm

That is very big then, but they are beautiful fish

by **kizno1** on Mon Aug 30, 2010 10:28 pm

Yh. Theres loads more i would love to add but most wont try to munch the BNs and im sticking to a fairly low stocking because im hoping the BNs, whiptails, severums and geophagus will all breed when they get older so dont want to many fish that will eat the others.

by **Nataliey** on Mon Aug 30, 2010 10:33 pm

Good plan
