juwel rio 240 help stock.

[Shekoi]

i need some ideas to stock the tank, it's 121x55x41 cm

i'm thinking about either discus or angels.
i'd like to move my corys from 45g to new tank, as they are always being chased by the swordtails making it difficult to feed them.

tetras? more corys? pl*co?

and ideas greatfull
what have people got with their discus?

cheers shekoi

what have people got with their discus?

I have cories, glowlight tetras, kuhli loaches, otos, chocolate gourami, harliquin rasboras, dwarf ancistrus, and an apisto with my discus. Other popular tanks mates are cardinals, congo tetras, angels, clown loaches, dwarf gourami...

You can put pretty much any peaceful fish in with discus as long as they can handle the temperatures that discus require.

Will this tank be planted?

Just a hint, if you go with discus, make sure you get a smaller q-tank ready so you can observe your fish... and, if you need to medicate them, you won't have to spend so much money on medication treating the whole tank. Another thing, if you can afford them, get adult discus (5'' +) so you don't have to worry about growing them out. And make sure you research, research, research . It will most likely save you a lot of headache.

I'm just a beginner with discus, so for better information, check out http://simplydiscus.com/forum.
