[PoofaceQ]

haha i know thats like the "beginner" tank to you MFK guys but i absolutley love it. only problem is that it seems so empty. let me run down what i got, and you tell me if/what else i can get.

1x 7" peacock eel
2x 2" silver dollar
2x 2" red-belly pacu (i know i know, save your breath)
3x 1" albino tiger barb
3x peppered cory
1x common pleco
2x needlefish.

I would grow out the fish a bit...you are going to more than fill it up.

agree, btw needle fish are sweet i love feeding them at work they take down feeders like it was nothing

those fish are gonna get big, and they will get big fast. dont buy anything other than some tetras. in a while, the tetras will simply become food, and when that happens, you wont need them anymore anyways, because your big fish are gonna be more than enough to please you.

when do you plan on upgrading to a 300g?

My suggestion would be to either take the pacu, pleco, and needlefish back, and buy some small community fish, or plan on upgrading to a MUCH larger tank in the near future and not add anything else at the moment.

BTW, you seem to have a filter on your tank that will handle your current fish load for...oh...a month or so.

Unless you plan on a 8x4ft footprint, start thinking on thining down your stock.
