29-30g Tank.... Options?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Apistos or rams (mikrogeophagus) could work. If you are worried about the pH you can use some RO to drop it some but at 7.5 you should be fine.
 
firemouth or convict
 
Apisto's sound cool, just looking at the rams

The Dwarf Cichlid profiles are great... maybe 4-5 Apisto's with a small (3-4) school of 1" danio's..These look like little trout. pic is link to profile..

With apistos try to get a sex ratio of 1 male to 2 females. Also if you are interested in them cory cats are good tank mates. You can get more of the those danios as well, I'd probably get a dozen.

:iagree:
 
I would say a pair of Firemouth would look great in this tank. Firemouth (thorychtys meeki) come from south/central america.
 
A pair of Firemouths or Convicts
