After much thinking its finally time i change my 6x2x2 to something new.

I got mostly Africans and they are kinda boring me.

So i have collect alot of fish over the past year but now i think im going to stick with some bigger monster fish.

Anyone got ideas? i wanna go for a particular theme of fish.

Im going to be keeping my flagtails, red tail GG, cigar sharks, plecos.

So what else should i add into the tank? I was thinking of 3 jardini's 2 barra's
and 2 clown knives. Of cos im more worried that the Jar's will chew each other off.

I got enough american cichlids so i dont think i be adding them into this tank though. Someting big but not too flashy with colours.
 
skip the CK as they can grow to over 2' in home aquaria, and look into polypterus/bichirs. many of the species would be happy for life in a 6x2. however you do have to watch your pleco's, as they sometimes like snacking on the polys slime coat
 
Never knew plecos were lke that hahaha i got 2 that are 25cms and 1 that is 35cms. Gold ones nuffin special =/

I would get some birchirs but they are expensive australia =( i had one before though the small albino one.
 
If it were my tank I would skip the giant gourami. I had one in my 210 (72x24x29) and it outgrew the tank. I believe that my 300 gallon tank would even be too small for it. Mine was 20.5" when Monster Fish Rescue adopted it and added it to his 1,500 gallon aquarium. It will soon be going into a 20,000 gallon aquarium.
