Well here is the pathetic deal, my mother has been gettin on me about how i dont have enough fish in my tank, she saw me looking at some kribensis cichlids online one day and now she is just nagging at me to get those to put in my tank. Embarrasing i know, but im 14, so i get it a lot :P. So yeah, my stock list is in my sig, is it possible to get a pair of kribs along with what i have?
 
Ummm, first off, what are the fractions in your sig? I hope you don't have 1/2 a GBR swimming around your tank!

I would stay away from african cichlids like Kribs.
 
no no, im sorry, it means one out of 2, but yeah, im also sorry, i meant apistos, sorry for the messups.
 
Kribs are a bit bigger & meaner than rams. As long as there's only 1 ram & 1 apisto (which?) it MIGHT work with some visual territories. Pairs or a pair of either probably not...
 
Alright so just to get EVERYTHING straight in my mind:
You have a 29 gal with:
4 Rummies
4 Cories
4 Kuhlies
1 GBR

And you want to add Apistos. (?)

I wouldn't. The footprint (floor-space) of your tank just isn't all that large and then to have multiple territorial species in it is calling for trouble. If you know the gender of your GBR then you can do another (opposite sex) GBR. Also you may want to up the numbers of your schooling fish.

I would do this:
2 GBRs
6 Kuhlis
6 Rummynose Tetras
4-6 Cories (depending on species)
 
alright, thanks guys
 
no no no he means he has 1 gbr and gunna get 1 more.

Current Stock List:
4/8 Rummynose tetras: has 4 but getting 4 more

4/6 Cory cats: has 4 but getting 2 more
4/4 Kuhli loaches: stocked
1/2 GBRs: has 1 but getting 1 more


hope you all understand what he means now.. and no i wouldnt get any more fish. you looked fully stocked.

wow your sig color sticked to my color now. sweet lol.
