Help me widdle down my wish list!!!

[Big_D_Breezy]

So, I'm putting together an order for rapps to stock my new 220g, and I need help widdling it down. Right now I have list down to

Amphilophus Sagaittae- barred
Trimac
Cichlasoma Grammode
Herichthys carpinte
Nandopsis Tetracanthus
Veija Regani
Parachromis Fredricksthalli

Any suggestions??

thats not too easy but the carpintes could go I suppose other than that I can't really help cause the rest are my wishlist too LOL

Technically the Carpinte is on my girls wish list, I thought I could trick her with a regular texas, and ended up getting an earful about "that's not a green texas" and "you don't care about my opinions on the fish"

 

[Ramcharger]

LOL so set up a tank for her carpintes lets you have more room

 

[mbunafishkeeper]

how much do you want the sagittae??

thinking realistically

from your list i would remove:
ampilophus saggitae
vieja regani

removing the likely aggressor and the likely to get bullied.

each fish is individual rememeber though.

you could start off with your full list and then remove any if needs be.

also with the carpinte... order a cyanoguttatus and tell her you ordered a carpinte

That's actually not a bad idea there ram

And that's already got me burned once mbuna, I'd hate to try it again lol

a 220's a big tank, i would just change out the regani for a more aggro vieja

any suggestions on one that looks as pretty as the regani, and I should also mention that I'll have 2 extra 55g's once I set this one up, so I could always put the regani in another tank, since they only get 12" it should be able to go in one of them if it gets bullied right??

i should also mention that I currently have, 1 oscar, 1 ebjd, 2 jd's, 1 texas, 1 jag, 1 GT, 1 L141, 1 Common Pleco, 1 Senegal Bichir, and 1 Silver Arowana, all juveniles spread out between 2 55g's and 2 10g's some of which will be moved to the 220g
