Empty 55 Gallon

[Woolfie13]

So my big fish mistake - Pacu was living in my 55 gallon until I found him a suitable home (10,000 gallon!!).

I now have an empty tank and I have a few that I'd really like but not sure how many of each and if I can/should add anything else. I don't want anything that will grow bigger than 4 inches.

My wish list is Bleeding Hearts, Ghost Catfish and Bamboo Shrimp.

Thoughts/Suggestions ??

if thats what you want, then that stock could work! Not sure about the Shrimp, but when I've seen Bamboos they seem pretty big so I don't think it would be a problem. I think your tank would seem empty though with just the bleeding hears

Lol I'm just a little paranoid after the pacu incident!

Could look into Honduran red points. Mine live with swordtails and you will be lucky if your males hit 5".

Clown loach. The one fish I still want lots of..

I love the clown loach but won't it get too big?

Depends on the dimensions of your 55g. If it's wide enough then clown loaches are okay.

2 clown loaches would be fine but that be it....

It's only a foot wide. It's 4 feet long.
