Well, I've finally got my new 85 gallon tank up and running, yay! I've got a Magnum 350 filter, play sand substrate, three 24" coralife freshwater single florescent 65W lights. The tank is going to be heavily planted.
I'm cycling with fish, unfortunately, but my other tank is drastically overstocked, and this is better than keeping them all in the other one, so I'm adding a few at a time, until all my old fish are in my new tank.
Here's what I have:
-1 chinese algae eater (I know, I know)
-1 corydora schwartz (the others have not survived)
-2 male honey gourami
-3 guppies (2 female, 1 male)
-too many baby guppies to count
What I'm adding:
-1 Bolivian Ram
-8-10 Threadfin Rainbowfish
-5 corydora schwartz
-2-3 female honey gourami
-a bunch of Red Cherry Shrimp and Trumpet Snails
So, any ideas on anything else to add? It's not that I don't have plenty of ideas, but I'd love to hear other opinions, as I'm sure there are plenty of things I haven't thought of! Preferably not plant eaters though, as this is going to be a heavily planted tank.
