I hesitate...

[claude3rd]

I hesitate to ask this question but... I have a 180g stocked with the following:

1 Oscar
2x Firemouths
2x Geophagus jurupari
1 Parachromis friedrichsthalli (Yelowjacket cichlid)
1 Salvini


My filtration is a 30g sump for bio and 2x Fluval 404s for mechanical plus a Cascade 1000 for chemical. I have another 404 that I might slap on there too.

Can I support more fish or should I leave well enough alone. Please be kind with your comments... I am sensitive.

add some silver dollars, and 1 or 2 more geos and you should be good to go

I would say you about at your limit. You might get away with a few larger schooling fish like silver dollars.

 

[fishticuffs]

add a few of the smaller geos.

silver dollars or some other dither type fish should be fine. imo I'de leave well enough alone on the territorial types.

Yeppers, silver dollars should work out just fine. They get really big though, like 8".

Ok... 4 silver dollars it is... and maybe a catfish.
