210 CA Stocking

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I knew I was taking a risk mainly with the maculicauda. All of the inhabitants are about 2 inches. We'll see
I’ll be 52 next week which means I’m officially into grumpy old man status but the older I get the more I dislike hyper aggressive fish. I’m not ready for a community tank full of neons but I just don’t want to wake up to dead fish anymore.

Where did you get everyone from?

Agh man, you have me beat! At 44, I feel like 60 lol
That's why I downgraded so many tanks and especially with my special needs son. But I've taken such a liking to aggressive fish for reasons. Imagine the amount of neon tetra I could put in the 210 lol

I bourcorti, black and jags from lfs in Charlotte and the Nics online from fish farmers daughter. Surprisingly, haven't had issue purchasing from fish farmers daughter. They have pretty good reviews and sells on eBay. Been getting fish here and there from them with no health issues and always active.
 
My old pair of maculicauda were good for the longest time until the male took a huge dislike to the female. He didn't like any other fish either. Hopefully growing up together yours won't be that bad.
It'll be a 50/50 shot. I had a large female before that was pretty calm but never had an opportunity with a male.

I’m in the northwest suburbs of Chiraq and there isn’t a store anywhere near me that I could walk in and buy those first three. I order at least 90% of my fish with the rest from GCCA members.

I haven’t heard of the Farmers Daughter but that sounds more like a porn movie title than a pet store, Lol.

Bro I was super sketched to purchase but carefully read their reviews on their website and eBay and was all good reviews. It's a husband/wife that took over the wife's father's fish farm down in Florida.

I wish there was a cichlid association here in NC
