Taking a guess that you are referring to the Brackish water? Well, Monos have been kept in full freshwater, but are recommended to be put into brackish, and possibly eventually saltwater. Now, I may move it to my saltwater tank once it gets larger, but for now he is doing just fine. :)

youll have to move it eventually, monos are full marine fish when full grown.

lol, whats wrong with the Parrots?


ur tank has a natural look to it and the parrots almost look fake....... i just think they would look in a crappy looking tank not this nice of one......

As I said, they can be grown in full freshwater. There are a lot of others who have tried this with good results. (Notice that the Monos are much larger than mine)

So, is it recomended? No
Is it possible? Yes
Saltwater fish aren't supposed to survive in freshwater, but they can, and it has been done. And that is a HUGE difference than putting a brackish fish in freshwater.
 
Great tank and choice of fish!!!!
On the light front, i think one looks better and also one light on is probably best for the stock choice.

lol, idk. I like em, amazing Cichlid.:)

EDIT: I think that the way the tank looks makes the Parrots look better... if that makes any sense, lol.

And thanks or the opinion.;)
I think I like it with just one light also.

EDIT: Jeez, 4, 4, and 6
 
all im saying is that it would be better for the mono iy you put it in a sw tank.

btw one light looks better.
