150 gallon wide stocking options?

what are they?

A gorgeous African Cichlid that do well in large numbers of their own kind.

Here are just some pics from google images.

I'm going to be setting up a 75g this summer and getting a colony of these guys...just such vibrant and amazing colors.

wow those are pretty. I kind of got the 150g though because Ive always wanted an oscar.

you mean depending on the poly? i said a palmas polli they get like 12 and a rainbow wolf is a lil monster but last time i checked this is Monster Fish Keepers not Cuddly Fish Keepers and a small pike would die in in the tank with a Oscar

If a poly swims and bugs the wolf it will get ripped apart. When i say small pike i mean one that grows around 10 inches like a belly crawler. My venny pike would own a oscar

lol. what setup would I need If I put clown loaches in the tank? recommended things for hiding, etc

Yeah I like the personality of the Oscar and I do think the Lemon Oscar is a really beautiful fish, I however will never get one due to the fact that they will eat tankmates that are smaller then them - some that aren't all that small either!

PVC Pipe is cheap and does the trick. If you don't want the pipe showing you can build up rocks around and on top to cover them up.

I really like the bumblebee tigers

Can I just use silicone to stick the rocks to the pvc?

okay I think I have my stock list figured out. Im thinking

x1 oscar
x1 bala shark or shark of some kind
x4/5 clown loaches

How do you guys think this set up would work? and would everything have enuf room to move around?

 

[AQUAMONSTER]

I would go oscar(upper-middle), red or yellow tail barracuda(top swimmer), jag catfish(bottom fish)

 

[JacobWhitley]
