In The Little Town Of Bedrock!
So I was wondering what tank size I could get away with if I wanted my stocking to consist of;
1 Green Terror (Aequidens rivulatus)
2-4 Firemouth (Thorichthys meeki)
0-2 Honduran Red Point (Amatitlania siquia)
2 Striped Raphael Catfish (Platydoras costatus)
or
2 Marbled Hoplo (Megalechis thoracata)

I'm not sure how many Firemouths I want so that is why it ranges from 2-4 and the amount of HRP ranges from 0-2. If I was to go with two FM's then I would get two HRPs but if I get 4 FM's then no HRPs, hope that made sense!

Would that be possible in like a 75 gallon? or if I was to just go with two FMs and no HRPs could it go in a 55? If not what if the GT was replaced with something smaller.. like maybe a Salvini or something? Any suggestions if a GT won't work?

Thanks! :)
 
I understand the bigger the better, I'm looking for specifics here though where it would be acceptable to have this stocking. If I could I'd buy a 300 gallon for them but its fairly unrealistic not to mention I can't afford it.
 
Figure out how large each fish you want will be when they are full grown and look at the sticky and do the math. You can put a bunch of fish in a 75 but not for life and it will depend on filtration bio load etc...
 
My purpose of this thread was to ask what I thought was a simple question, I wasn't interested in getting into a discussion, or basically being told to google it. If all you have to say to me is frankly useless posts then I'm not interested in them. I would just appreciate an answer to my question and suggestions like I had asked for. What is the purpose of being on a forum if you just get told, google it. I can understand if someone doesn't feel compelled to write an answer because its been asked to many times but the solution is simple, you don't type anything on the thread.
 
U could do this

1 Green Terror (Aequidens rivulatus)
3 Firemouth (Thorichthys meeki)
2 Honduran Red Point (Amatitlania siquia)
2 Marbled Hoplo (Megalechis thoracata)
