Will This Work?

Thanks, that is a thought.

Your tank is a bit larger than mine but adding 3 giant danios as dither fish is not a bad idea. What do you think?

I am also planning on replacing the common pleco with two smaller variates. I think 2 6" or so plecos is more interesting that a 12" + behemoth.

I wouldn't add dither fish unless you need them. I only added them because I was having some aggression problems between my convicts.

For the pleco. Mine are just your common pleco and I swear they haven't grown that much. They are about 3-4 inches each and do a decent job at keeping the tank clean. Also, they seem to be able to defend themselves against the more aggressive fish.

You are quite right. After I posted I sat and looked at the tank and decided that would not be the best idea.

As far as the peco goes, I already have about a 5" living alone in a 55g. I am trying to decide if I am going to keep him and move him to the 125g or find him a new home. I'm leaning to the "new home" part.
