thanks, those are amazing. what would you suggest out of the veija?
anything,
again check out my thread and you will see some nice choices,
However some vieja can be pricey too!
But they also tend to be peaceful at times
 
honda about the garage problem i suggest, yard sale, build or buy a shed for tthe stuff in garage, or organize the stuff to clear up some space, and when theres space in the garage yah can put in all the fish that you like out of the way of the girlfriend.
 
ya thanks i wish i could sell something out of the garage but most of it isn't mine.
I am considering adding:
1 veija argentea
1 black belt
1 other veija (suggestions)
1 flagtail
i forgot to add im adding an acara but don't remember what it is, its from rapps and has some aggression.

So this would leave a total stocking at the end with:
3 oscar
2 convicts
1 jack dempsey
1 green terror
1 veija argentea
1 black belt
1 other veija
1 flagtail
1 acara
1 chocolate pleco

Might be a little much so let me know
i do water changes twice a week of about 40% and i would be running a sump and canister filter.
 
I count a lot of fish that are gonna be one foot+.
You'll need religious wc!
Mind you, things can allways come up and you may not be able to do as many wc as you intend too.
I'd stay a bit more on the safe side and not stock the tank that full...
But that's just my opinion.
I just had the flu and all maintenance had to wait a week. Then I still want my fish to do great, and they luckily do.
 
ya i get what your saying but i have been religious on my wc. im am a full time college student, while not living at home and working two jobs and i have been able to get it done. with a python water changes don't take long plus if anything happens my girlfriend will do them (she loves the fish, luckily). i figured it would be a little overstocked so i might lose the flagtail and a second veija but add dithers.
 
ok so how does this sound
1 veija argentea
1 black belt
3 oscars
2 convicts
1 green terror
1 jack
1 acara
1 chocolate pleco
few tinfoil barbs or silver dollars
How does that sound?
 
Sounds full to me!
But I can Imagine it to be very nice.
I only got one Oscar and one Vieja and that's more than enough for my tank,cuz I know they're gonna grow bigger!
They devided their territory for now but I had to train my Vieja to leave the Oscar alone.
Vieja can be bad-ass!
