ok i think im going to get a 120 gallon 48''by24'' by24'' i think so im thinking about stocking it with one jack dempsy one firemouth pair one lima shovelnose catfish and polys like a senegal and a delhezi is this over stocked
new 120 gallon
- Thread starter killerfish
- Start date
well the jack is goin to get bigger then the firemouths so he will most likely be the dominate one..and ur not guranteed a pair of fms unless u start with a group...and for the lima he will end up gettin larger then the fm as well and may consider them food..the polys would be ok but may get picked on by the jd..and the lima may eat them as well...wat i would do is if you want a fm pair just buy 6 or 8 juvies and grow them out..and they would be fine in the 120 and with that you could do some polys as well...and maybe a school of congo tetras as dithers..a good cat that you could do that stays small is the asian bumblebee only obtaining a max length of around 6 inches and are really neat lookin fish..but this is only my 2 cents..killerfish;759766; said:
or if you wanted to do a more larger cichlid got with a pair of red tiger motas..
.cause everyone loves a quapoteDoesn't seem overstocked to me it averages out to about 50" or so in my head and the rule is 1" of fish to 2 gals
, or on MFK 2" of fish to 1 gallon of water 
Pretty much as long as you have good filtration and plenty of room for your fish to swim around and be happy you can cram as many combatible fish as you like. gl with you tank

combatable is a very bad thing .lol
also a cat i like is the midnight catfish. or you raphs. nothing like a good spotted raph.
Hmm I'm not sure which way I meant it probably, to be helpfull, comPatible, but if it were my tank.....Tongue33;760123; said:I think he meant to spell it ComBatible
ok well what if i put the firemouths in another tank what would be a good fish with the lima, polys and jd
