I have 3 tanks that are empty exsept for some cycling fish....

20gallon: black sand
20gallon: black gravel
29gallon: Lots of cool pots big river rocks

I dont know what to stock these with, i have a 20gallon long split in half, 1 hald is for my guppie fry and the other half is for any other fry that happen to be in my tanks.

But i have no clue what to put in these tanks, some help would be nice.

Different dwarf cichlids would be nice. Maybe some dwarf puffers. Can't really do monsters in a small tank :(.

Small community fish...and if you ever get sick of them, they'll make a tasty treat for the Preds.

I would get a school of panda cories, maybe some of the smaller puffers, or do a nice planted community tank, I wouldnt mind having 3 extra tanks!!!!!!!

the 29g is ready for convicts to spawn. They make good feeders and have a fast growth rate. They produce around 120 fry per breeding. Use the other two for grow out tanks.

Oh, one more thing...if you can get to the walmart in Deltona they get their fish from a different supplier than any wally world in Orlando. Right now they have spotted puffers and hillstream loaches. Gotta love those hillstream loaches :popcorn:

well, i have a female black convict the male died from stress due to switching tanks.
I could change the 20long to a planted cardinal/community tank.
the 20gallon: fry/divider
29gallon:convicts
20gallon: feeder fish/shiners or growout tank?
