ok so im gonna work this summer to buy myself a 75 gal a sump and of course fish any of you got any stocking Ideas? im thinking a planted aquarium with plenty of drift wood and alot of smaller fish cause I feel like I cant support monsters properly. im thinking guppies male and female so that they will breed. two angle fish some hatchet fish different tetras./ my two raphy cats one stripped and the other spotted (raphy and raphito) and some corries. perhaps get my hands on some whip tail cats some upside down cats. I dont really know please give me your suggestions and if you have a planted tank please post the pics so I can get ideas.f I am so pumped to get the fish tank that im loosing sleep over it
 
I would not use a sump in a planted tank; just because u will loose a lot of Co2 due to all the gas exchange that occurs inside the sump. I would use a canister filter.

fish recommendation: a school of galaxy rasboras.

hmm those are pretty and thanks for the advice I could pump CO2 into the tank i read online that you can do that


you could do that! it just depends on 2 things:

1. what plants you want to grow, you can grow most without injecting Co2.
2. your budget!

what about Apistogramma cacatuoides dwarf cichlids? they look nice and they are smaller so I can get a bunch

that's also a very good choice!
