5-Laetacara curviceps (Dwarf Flag Cichlid)
8-Congo Tetra
5-Clown Loaches
6-Tiger Barbs
15-Rosy Tetra - (Hyphessobrycon rosaceus)
2-3 Geophagus sp. "Tapajos Orange Head

It sounds like an OK mix to me. What is this with the number 5?? 1 male and 4 females?? You have 3 kinds of lower level cichlids ( and 15 over all). Should be Ok becasue 2 of them are small, but .....

Jeff: Got your PM, glad to hear the plants are doing well.

What species is this pleco? Your geos and loaches are likely to uproot the plants. I would suggest going with kuhli loaches instead or Yasuhikotakia sidthimunki if money is not an issue.

You can have more than 15 rosy tetras in a 300g.
