Hi
I'm picking up 3 70 litre (24x15x12) tanks on a stand tomorrow

I'm going to use one tank for growing out dwarf puffers, if I get them to breed anyway lol

That leaves 2 free tanks one for a breeding pair and one as a grow out

What small exiting fish can I house and breed in a 70 litre? I don't mind if there not the easiest things to breed as long as they are not impossible
It would be nice to make some money selling the babies too
 
Both above have good suggestions, Tanganyikan shell dwellers are great, as are some small south american cichlids like rams and apistogramma.
 
Shell dwellers is my vote! great fish. Id say gold ocellatus, they are really entertaining. And pound for pound some of the meanest lil fish on the planet. Mine would lock on to my arm if i had to re arrange shells

I had thought about rams, I quite like the look of Bolivian blue rams

I've never kept any ciclids before but gold ocellatus sound good! I like a nice aggressive fish so I will look in to these I think

you wont be sorry you did. They are very small and stay small but have a interesting social structure.

Got a tank with cherry shrimp in and I spend ages watching them lol

Will be putting shrimp in to control algae in the grow out tanks and breed them in there while my puffers grow and pair up

My main tank has polys in they are one of my fav
