Nice to meet you!

HI, I'm brand spanking new here, I saw the 50,000 gallon project online, was severely impressed/jealous, so now I'm getting a 230 gallon next weekend. Its 6 feet long, 2.5 feet high, and 2 feet deep. It'll be separating 2 rooms in my basement.

Problem is, I have no idea what to stock it with! I already have a 61 gallon malawi tank, a 30 gallon fry/growout tank, a ten gallon hospital tank, and a 44 gal terrarium full of White's Tree Frogs.

I wanna go for color and size.

Any suggestions?

hey there,

welcoem to mfk. You could stock with some dats, rays and a tig... mmm dream set up

what about Pbass? or better yet 10,000 neons and cardinals. then drop an Oscar in there. You could also do a very nice large brackish water with archers, monos, Gobies, etc... Or get SA/CA cichlids, Green terror, jack Dempsey, Red terror, Red Devil, etc... YOU HAVE LOTS OF CHOICES!!!

if i had to choose i would go with rays! hands down

 

[Gr8KarmaSF]

aro, dat, and ray combo!

Personal preference for size and posture would be the silver arowana. For color discus, and for bottom dwellers a little bit of plecos!

I would love to have that tank. If you got brackish, you could get a school of monos, scats, archers, and a datnoid or two. I would love to see a tank with a school of large monos, they are really cool.

hi welcome. duno 2 feet depth is quite small for rays... could house some of the smaller ones for a while though. think some plecos would do a better choice

i agree plecos are awasome fish and would get quite large in that tank.

Asian Aros are legal up there, right? Get one of those
