Ok so I have a bad case of MTS and need to start up another tank. :dance:
Curently I have a 25 gal with the following fish:
3 molies(1 male 2 Female)
1 Pearl Gourami
3 Zebra Danios
3 Cherry barbs
2 Black Skirt Tetras
4 Coris
2 Otos
Ok so since I would like to up the schooling fish numbers and change the 25 gal to heavily planted, I have decided to divide up the tank. Going to keep all the fish but the danios they seem to anoy the other fish to much and my gourami let 1 of them know it... so they may be going back to the LFS.
Here are the setups I have been thinking about and some questions to follow:
Setup 1)
25 gal
3 mollies
1 Pear Gourami
6 Cherry barbs
4 Coris
20 gal
1 Angelfish
4 Black Skirt Tetras
2 Otos
Setup 2)
25 gal
1 mollie(male)
1 Pearl Gourami
6 Cherry barbs
4 Black Skirt Tetras
4 Coris
20 Gal
2 Mollies(female)
6 small schooling fish( thinking some Odessa Barbs or maybe some rummynose or cardinal tetras)
3 Zebra Danios( might keep them in this set up)
2 otos
Setup 3)
25 gal
3 mollies
1 Pear Gourami
6 Cherry barbs
4 Coris
20 Gal
2 Rams(m/f pair)
6 Black skirt tetras
2 otos
Questions:
1)The big one is can I keep a single anglefish happily in a 20gal? I like the first setup alot but this is my main concern with it.
2)Also can a pair of rams be kept in a 20g or would I be better off with a single ram and maybe a blue gourami?
Think thats about it comments/criticism are welcomed and let me know if there are any diffrent fish choices you would make.
