Glad to see you guys brought this back up, thanks for the suggestions. I actually probably have too many fish in there now. Since last time, my EBJD died of a parasite, and I sold the firemouths. I added a Red Spotted Severum, a regular JD, a rotkeil severum, a pair of thorichtys maculipinnis, and two boesmani rainbows. I know I am getting overstocked but I am definitely selling the rainbow and probably some others before they all get fully grown. At 4", my Nic has colored up nicely, so it's probably female. The T. macs are really colorful too, especially the male...Just wish they would pair up.
Here is my question, which fish would you remove? I know geos are supposed to be social and kept in a group, but the heckellis don't really stick together, and there are plenty of other fish in the tank, so would it be okay to just keep two? I'm thinking of getting rid of the barbs too, I feel like I don't really need them for dither.
Oh, and for filtration I'm running a Fluval FX5 and an Eheim 2217.
