Stocking plans... I'm getting ready to cycle a 29 gallon with a bio-wheel filter and a heater. Temp should be around 78 for a while, then I'm bumping it up to 80. Black gravel with a layer of java moss and a piece of driftwood. Maybe a few other plants. 4 Standard Tiger barbs 4 Albino, Red, or Green Tiger barbs 2 Bushynose Plecos The plecos won't be introduced until some algae has built up. Is this a good stocking list? |
are you going to use the barbs to cycle the tank or are you doing fishless cycle? |
Bring the temp down a touch. 78 is just fine. The pleco will devour the plants, bad choice. Use synodontis' or cories as scavengers as they will not harm the plants. Barbs will produce a heavy bio-load. Heavier filtration may be needed. Just keep an eye on things after intoducing fish. |
