240 gallon stocking ideas?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
WTF? you stalking me?
 
Right now in my 210 I have:
1 brasiliensis
4 jack dempseys
2 argenteas
2 loisellei
3 rokteil severums
1 managuense
1 crenicichla alta
2 grammodes
5 red hook metynnis
2 cuban cichlids
4 carpintis vontehillo

I think that's it. I might have forgot something...


The tank is scaped with Rock and driftwood for a theatrical setting. (fish can come out and then vanish from view)

I enjoy it WAY better than any planted, salt, reef, frontosa, malawi or tanganyikan african, or discus setup I've had in the past.

I wad just there Friday. Picked up 2 juranese cats.
 
I really like that store, it was my first time there on Saturday. Do you think that they breed in that tank? noticed some really tiny babies in there. I got a 8+" Lima Catfish for $20, thought it was a pretty good deal.
 
I doubt they bred. Those juranese were babies as were the other cats he had.

It's was an ok store... They could venture into more exotics though.

And yes, I loved that cichlid tank as well!
 
I have finally decided on my stocking for the 240! :headbang2

So far the tank inhabitants are going to be the following:

1 Jag (F)
1 Midas (M)
2 Palmas Bichirs (12+")
1 Ornate Bichir (9")
3 Senegal Bichirs (7+")
1 Zaire Green Bichir (will arrive Tuesday)
1 Green Phantom Pleco (arrival Tuesday)
1 RTxTSN (17"- ONLY temporary)
1 Para Pleco
2 RedTail Leopard Plecos


I am going to put sand in the bottom, and use large River Rock- I am also going to add potted plants- driftwood- and fake rock caves. Once the RTxTSN leaves I may add some clown loaches.

Most of my fish are bottom dwellers- Any idea what else to ad?

Once the RTxTSN is gone, I am going to add some baby Juranese Cats that I am growing out, and I am thinking maybe add some silver dollars?
