Steve's 300 Thread!

She's up and running!

Stock-
(3) 3" silver dollars
(2) 2" red head geos
(1) 4" temensis pbass
(1) 4" ornate bichir
(1) 3" sand goby
(1) 4" royal pleco

Want to add-
clown loaches, flagtail, datnoid, tire track eel, and a small ray. Any of these, preferably local, please run deals by me ; )

Any problems with that? Other than the temensis rocketing past everybody that is. I'll keep an eye on him. These fish all look so tiny in my tank. It kind of sucks lol.

Clown loaches will definately outcompete the tire track eel for food, those eels can be really picky eaters at first, and like bichirs they don't always find the food right away. whereas the loaches will go straight to the food. Its one of the reasons why I don't have any loaches in my 225.

The rest of the stock sounds good, I don't know enough about Pbass and rays to give you advice but my flagtail and datnoid both grew extremely slowly.

Your Ornate will decimate all Clown Loaches. This I know first hand.

My cousin (nick1223) had a 10"ish ornate with clown loaches ranging from 2-6" with no problems at all.

Sorry guys no pics just yet as I just checked this before leaving for work. The temensis is already picking on my geos. That's really the only problem so far. And the ornate and sand goby aren't the fastest movers come feeding time haha. But the silver dollars and the temensis are doing great.

Will be pleco take those veggie wafers do you think?

The only option is to plumb a smaller tank into my system for the smaller guys. ...right? ; ) haha
