ok iam getting a 65gallon i want to stock it like this:
2 jack dempseys-will get rid of 1 with pair not joined
1 convict
1 texas- can get rid of
1 firemouth
3 gaint danios
1 bristlenose plec
all of these fish are about 2-3" and this tank would proberly be for life for them. so do you think this is overstocked and what filter system should i use.

ps the texas is not a true texas not sure what it is can get a pic it is a greeny-blue like a grey colour.

get all the same sex perferably females so they dont mate.
the con can breed with ALL the fish if it had no other cons ( which dont get another if u dont want to ) the FM get 2 cause they work in pairs and teh JD just stay wit one then ull be ok..o and substitute the texas for more dithers instead of 3 gaint danios get 6. then if u want get sum swordtails for live food every month then ull be fine
 
yh ok, i forgot to add a id shark but i dont think i will be as i got it as a hand me down only about 4inch but some one has eaten both of his eyes and hes still alive upside down, should i put him asleep, dont no the best pain less way, also what type of filtration sould i use
 
one way to let him die is to put him in a bag in the freazer
 
kk, do you think my bristle nose will be ok with them hes at least twice ther size also i just went over to try and sex the JD and the both had blue sparckles only 1 line underneth the eye, female or male or to young to tell the about 2-3inch
 
you cant tell just by the blue speckles

pictures would help
 
ok will do carnt right now the tanks blue from the last medication of ick so they will be on tomorrow also i will get a pic of my texas and see what you think she is. i think its a female as it has a curved fin but its only 1-2inch long
