I am trying to decide wheather to make my tank 'predatory' with fish like EBJD, bichirs, eels and dwarft channa or to go with discus and clown loachs..I'd love to go either way but MFK can decide
It's not everyone else who decides. It's you who should, Eoibio. First question, are you willing to do plenty of water changes if it comes to juvenile discus? Do you have the patience to raise a young fish?
Go predatory. Your foot print would be great for some upper jaw species of polypterus. Maybe get 2 Delhezis, 2 Senegals, a Buettikoferi, and a Retropinnis. That would be killer, and I would be envious.
