Hey guys so this is my first post ive got a 75 gallon its custom so its alot taller but not as wide as most
the stock is as follows
RTC
Silver Aro
Duboise-2
Frontosia
Pictus
Gold Severum
Royal Green Terror
Green Terror Parrot Hybrid-2
Flowerhorn
Adonis Pleco
Red Hump Geo
Read Head Cichlid(Synspila)
Parrot
EBJD
Manganeusse
Tire Track Eel
Botia Loach
Any Opinions on fish stocking and such
the aro and the RTC are getting there own tank soon but were moving so we dont wanna set up a huge tank just yet however all the fish are currently juvvies with the biggest being the red head at about 6 inches so would everything work out?
 
RTC-Not appropriate.
Silver Aro--Not appropriate.
Duboise-2
Frontosia--Not appropriate.
Pictus
Gold Severum
Royal Green Terror

Flowerhorn
Adonis Pleco-Not appropriate.
Red Hump Geo

Tire Track Eel
Botia Loach-What species are you looking for? This name is very vague.

A lot of your stocks are not suitable for a 75g. You'll need to research further and narrow down your list again.
 
Def' agree with Lupin , Please dont get any of the fish which will outgrow the 75gal tank until you have got the very larger tank for them first .

Like the Silver Awo' which gets about 3Foot head - tail and the RTC' which can get upto about 4Foot head - tail .

Not sure on size of the other fish that Lupin has said are not sutible to get , but i do know that the Silver Awo' and RTC' will need a very large tank/ pond , the RTC' more than the Awo' .

Silver Awo' - a tank/ pond about - 8x 4x 3Foot - but bigger would be better ,

RTC' - a pond about 10x 10x 3Foot - if not bigger .
 
I wouldn't get an RTC. If the tank is too small, they don't stop growing and end up getting gill curl, bad colouration and basically just sit there all day because they can't move. Bad for the fish and not a very attractive thing to have in your tank IMO.
 
a lot of your fish just don't go together or they will out grow that tank quickly.

you would be stunned how fast a properly housed aro will grow... my friend had his outgrow his 125 in like 8 months.

RTC's have no business ever being in that small of a tank. they just simply grow way to fast. Tire track eels get very large also, although I do not know how fast they grow. does duboisi = the lake tang cichlid? if so they have a very special diet and won't mix well with predators and meat eaters at all. the manganeusse will out grow and completely dominate a tank that size. we had onethat dominated a whole 150 gallon tank and it wasn't even close to full size.

you need a little more research. And before you buy something huge like an aro and RTC... make sure you can realistically house it pretty damn soon.

I think he already has this stock. It looks like it, read the higlighted.:nilly::nilly::nilly::nilly:
 
That is a very bad, uneducated list.
 
I agree with Lupin, BTW.
