My tank stocking questions

[nes999]

ive been working on a 500gallon circle tank. right now it has 6 clown, 6 tiger barbs loachs 6 balas 3 plecos a 6 mollies. im wondering if i sold off the mollies and added a pair of convicts will the convicts kill my loachs or balas or my barbs

also i have fake logs in the tank would those be good for breeding or should i do somthing different

In that big of a tank, I think they would be ok. I also think you have room for a lot more clowns

i love clowns im slowly gonna being the numbers up to around 9 im not afraid for the loaches its the barbs the loaches have attacked splassy hes my 14inch plecos and he isnt afriad of anything that one day he went buy their opening to go under the tank in to the fake under gravel filter they about killed him litterly.

in a 500g tank you could add a few pairs

 

[nes999]

i want to keep the stocking realtivly low. and convicts are prolific breeders

 

[TTTT]

well then add one or two pairs.

 

[nes999]

i want a wide varriety of animals not just a large amount of a few.
