How is this stocking?

[SecretHavenFarm]

I have my empty 75. I was hopping to stock it with 3 bala sharks and one senegal bichir. Does this sound ok? or could I add anything else? or is to much already? Thanks for the in put

Sure, sounds good to me, but I'd do 3 Sen's and 3 Bala's.

would I be able to add 2 or 3 clown loaches? I have heard that they are very slow growers?So I wouldnt have to upgrade for awhile, if I remember correctly and would really like to have some as everyone who does have them seem to love them.

I've read that they should be kept in groups of 4-5 at least. I'm not sure on max size or how much waste they produce tho.

ur first stock seems fine clown loaches like bigger schools and you would need to upgrade to a much larger tank.

Yeah get a couple more sens. I only have one atm but they're awesome.

sounds good...but also seems a better reason to get a bigger tank lol

the clown loaches grow super slow, sure they get big but that takes years!!! so you could do a school of them in a 75. everything else should be good too.

Im definatly plannning to go bigger eventually, but hopefully not a for few years. But if this stock will do well for awhile then im gonna go for it , Thanks guys

sounds like a good stocklist...i'd actually add something like a ctenopoma to add a different "look" to the tank, or a small cichlid like Steatocranus
