opinions on switching tankmates.

[joemackereth]

i have a tank around 360 litres, its dimensions are 115cm x 50cm x 60cm and it has very adequate filtration.
its inhabitants are:
2x 5-6in oscars
1x 4in green terror
2x 3in green terror
1x 6in featherfin synodontis

i would like to get rid of the o's and add a school of 5-7 silver dollars and maybe 4-5 clown loaches. what are your thoughts? and should i keep all 3 gt's or just the big one?
thanks in advance!

ok thats 95gallons it already seems pretty stocked the 5-7 silver dollars would def make it overstocked

 

[Chicklette]

^^ Agree, you are really overstocked. Two oscars can bairly fit in a 90, two should really have a 120 gallon. But for a 90 gallon you could have green terrors
and featherfin synodontis but that's all I would keep in there. Sorry this is not what you want but you will be really overstocked if you keep the oscars but you said you wanted to get rid of them, that's good.

 

[clarius catfish]

keep the oscars

 

[joemackereth]

so it looks like its gunna have to be the big GT the syno and the silver dollars.

I wouldn't add anything to that tank.

I was looking at Manlyfish's avatar and forgot the question for a minute..........Hahaha!

 

[joemackereth]

the stocking would ONLY be:
1x 4in GT
1x 6in syno
5-7 x silver dollars. probably between 2-4in

 

[Gruff Master]

^ you'll be ok with this while they are still small but 5-7 SD will get pretty big.

 

[Vapor315]

Instead of SD you could do a Syn, GT, Pair of Firemouths, and a school of giant Danios.

 

[joemackereth]

i'm gunna go with,
1x 4in GT
1x 6in syno
5x silver dollars
