Stocking Ideas

[tel0004]

Im looking for stocking ideas for 4 of my aquariums.

Aquarium 1-30 gallons, I already have 1 betta, 8 zebra danios, and plan on getting 4 corry catfish. I want 2-3 small colorful fish.


Aquarium 2-29 gallons, I want some easy to bread fish, maybe convicts, maybe mollys, or guppys, and something else. I have no problem feeding the babies to the other fish, as mean as that sounds.

Aquarium 3-38 gallons-Africian cichlids

Aquarium 4- 29 gallons, Saltwater, 2 clownfish, 1 scooter blenny, plus other fish. These are just ideas, Im open to ideas. Thanks.

When finsihed It should be cool.

Aquarium 2 - definetly go for convicts, when I move my piranha to the 55g I am getting a pair for the 29g. I hear they are great breeders and their fry make good feeders.

Aquarium 3 - what kind of african cichlids?

Yeah, I had convicts in the past, I was thinking about convicts and guppies, with a divider of course. I dont know what kind of african cichlids to get, I only own 2 of the four tanks, but I have the stands for them and 3 heaters and 3 filters, so Im just in the planning stage. Thanks for the advise.

Breeding rams would be interesting. I understand they're easy to breed, at least somewhat.

i've always found that flounder and tilapia are pretty easy to bread, just gotta dip them in egg first. ; )

A pair of convicts would be fine for the 29g, but I would not get more fish with a divider, the species profile on here recommends a 30g min. for convicts. what about guppys in the first tank? they breed well, are colorful?
