100g stocking ideas?

[abbott75]

My tank set up is a duel 6-foot display tank. All together it is about 1000 litres, with the water circulating through both tanks.
The top tank is 130g and holds Clown Loaches, a RTBS and a few danios, the bottom (100g) is currently (temporarily) holding 2 CAE, 1 Betta and 1 Bronze cory.

The temp is about 26* C with a pH of about 7.5.

So, any ideas on what should go into the bottom tank? They would have to meet the following criteria:

-Cannot be jumpers, as a lid cannot be put on this section.
-Cannot require too many live plants, as this section cannot have lighting.
-Must be safe in the current paras (26*, 7.5pH)
-Prefer them not to out grow the 100g
-I'm in Australia, so don't suggest anything like rays which I can't get over here...

So... THINK PEOPLE

Ok, hows this for an idea?

1x Black Ghost Kinfe
6x Kuhli Loaches
1x Electric Blue Cichlid
+Breeding population of livebearers for food.

I'm usually a fan of 'local specific' communities... but hey, lets have a little fun!

Why not get some big fish? Forget the kuhlis. But if you want them, then go for it!

The top tank is 130g and

how did you pull this off? You can get a lid... Just get 3peace of plex and cut holes for any piping. I have seen some set up ehere they had riveted on doors.

Oh and what are the prints on the tank? u said 6 duel long im lost.

I'd say a few Gold severums, not sure how they'd do with so little vegetation.

You're not supposed to mix mbunas with other fish species. As for kuhli loaches, forget them if you want BGK. BGK's will obviously eat them.

Severums are always a good idea, along with some catfish of your choice perhaps.
