75 Gallon Community Stocking

[JustTheFish]

Starting a new 75g community. My current stock is, is there anything that is wrong with this? I would like to have a planted tank with driftwood. The plants are Java Ferns, Java Moss, Amazon Swords, Assorted Crypts, and some Vallisneria. What substrate should I use?

Sounds good to me. Although, maybe watch out for the neons being eaten.

By whom? The keyholes?

Should I do 5 penguin tetras?

That was my assumption when I read SalviniCichlidFan post. I think adult Black Neons will be fine they grow much bigger than the standard Neon.

I was thinking about having just the neons, plants, and cories grow out for a few months

Sounds like a great plan.

I would skip on the Roseline sharks. They Like PTCs are build for speed and gain a decent size. I feel a 4ft would not do them justice. Replace with more Black Neons. The bigger the shoal of them the better.

That and Roselines are absolute food hogs, would be hard to get stuff to the bottom fish.

Should I have a lid?
