Can i have diffrent types together happly ?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
So just one Golden nugget ?

and what about the ohters ?, Are they ok with each other ?
 
BuMp !

What about Angels , could i have a few of them in the tank too ? maybe about 6 or 8 including the Rams , Barbs and others .

As i was thinking on doing a a full Angel tank before having the thoughts of doing a full Pleco tank , could i put some in too ?

i would. give you something to look at. but if i did a pleco tank i wouldnt even light it.

Thanks , I was just thinking of doing the tank with very low light with maybe just a 2Foot bulb placed over the middle of the tank and just lighting it up for only acouple of hours a day , just so i can sit and watch the fish while im on my computer .

Even with one gold nugget you still might be a little crowded. You could try it and if it is too much you could try taking a couple of the clowns out. I believe the gold nugget may need more protien than the rest when he gets bigger, but If you feed him bigger chunks of food(like shrimp) you will only have one piece of protien based food in there and since he will be bigger I AM ASSUMING that he will fend the others off.

The lightstrip just went on my tank this week so they have been in the dark all week and my L-114 has been out a lot more. I would also suggest moon lights

I might be worried about the barbs nipping at the angels. I dont know what size those tetras get but I know angels can be capable of eating some tetras. I personally think I would just go with the rams and angels. Or maybe some roseline barbs for some movement.
 
Thanks for the feedback Wingate2581 , that tank looks great ! Just Rams and Angels sound a good idea too .

Size of fish , just so people know what it should be like if i do go with all the fish i have named -

Rams = 3/ 3.5Inch
Tiger Barbs = 3/ 3.5Inch
Cherry Barbs = 2Inch
Lemon Barbs = 3Inch
Ember tetra = 1.5Inch
Penguin tetra = 3Inch
Buenos Aires Tetra = 3Inch
Angel's = 12Inch Tall .
 
What about Bristlenose Pleco , are they a good Pleco to get too with the ones am thinking on getting too ?

I believe they would work if you would'nt be overstocked. What kind of filtration are you going to use?
