What fish are you interested in? Do you want a biotop, a community, breeding pair, wetpet?

 

[MatteoTheEnder22]

The biotop sound interesting also the breeding pair and wetpet I guess just interesting fish.

 

[MatteoTheEnder22]

Im also interested in predatory fish and ancient fish preferably fish that I can breed.

 

[Fishnerd360]

African butterfly fish and Senegal bichirs, but they will need a good lid.

My favorite biotope setup for breeding pair is Parachromis managuensis .
Plants setup will be tricky for this species because their up rooting plants behave (its like to dig the substrate) so I have to use either anubias or Java Fern attached to driftwood (heavy planted with those 2 plants) and they keep spawning every 4~6 weeks once the pair established.

What will you be using for filtration?

 

[MatteoTheEnder22]

A 500 gallon tetra pond filter.

 

[MatteoTheEnder22]

Are there any big colorful cichlids that I can put in there?

Flowerhorn, blood parrots, EBJD, JD. are all good options
