Setting back up my 90

[Red618]

Hey guys so looking to take a few fish out of my 125 they just can't keep up with other fish way to much agression. They are a jewel and fire mouth. So then they will go in the 90. Was thinking for the other fish a salvini or gt. Or both but unsure looking for help thanks.

Salvini is apparently really aggressive Ive been told on here.

Maybe add some more firemouths or rainbows perhaps some convicts or sajica ?

A decent sized group of fire mouths would look good in a 90

 

[Red618]

How many firemouths would you guys suggest I am a big fan of them

 

[celebrist]

Well, they max out around 8 inches(more likely six) so I would go with 10 or 12 if I was dedicating the tank to them but at least six if you want them to color up nice

I would like to keep the jewel with them. So maybe try 8? My Freddy has come to hate my jewel and need to get him out.

 

[Alexxxxsv14]

Maybe 4-5 firmoutjs and another jewel buddy for the one you already have

Two jewels usually means one jewel. I would go with six fire mouths the jewel a couple tougher cats that stay under a foot and some tetra dithers like Mexican or Buenos Aires, maybe Columbian blue and reds

Tiger barbs and Firemouths work out very well together. I have 5FMs with a group of 12 Tigerbarbs in a 55G and they do great together. I have a female GT in there temporarily and everyone is getting along well so it could work long term. If you really amped up the filtration and did good WCs....I honestly don't see anything wrong with 6 FMs, 1 Jewel, 1 GT, 12-15 Tiger Barbs and some nice smaller growing L#s in a 90G.
