which peacefull tank?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Dont ask for advice if all you want is people to agree with you... Nobody is hating on blood parrots. Just saying a fish that is half red devil and half Veija is usually not going to be peaceful. You say you want peace, but parrots, JD, and Vieja are far from docile.
*Agree with loves severums. Thats an awesome stocking for 125.
 
ok well like i said i might not go with peacefull. i am quickly going semi aggressive again. thinking mota, salvini, and maybe a few other ca that are plenty active and aggressive

like i said i dunno the spelling guys. and i know it will be slightly overstocked < that's an understatement thoose are just base stocklists. and the blood parrot is staying, so are the jds and ornate pim(i really wish people would read everything!) also why does everyone hate blood parots? < because they are ugly and severely deformed mine is a little sweet heart, he wont eat until he watches everyon else eat. and i am going to grow out the ebjd, untill he is the same size as the others. the only ones on either list that i really wanted anyway where the veija < That's V-I-E-J-A, not veija, ebjd, and geos. the rest are just fillers. i am ordering the green phantom asifo(as soon as i find one). geezed guys they arent set at all.

also since when does a blood parrot, 2 female jack dempseys, and a ornate pim max out a 125:grinno: < I don't recall hearing anyone say that they do, but when you have a little 125 gallon holding a "vieja" (btw, "vieja" is a genus, not a species, so there are many different fish that you could be referring to), a sajica, three dempsey's, a convict, a firemouth, a pleco, a blood parrot, and an ornate pim... you can bet it will be pretty overstocked. is it the extreme sizes? 8 inches and 10 inches:screwy: and i will have a uv sterilizer a emperor 400 biowheel and an fx5:naughty:
My comments are in red.
 
ok man i get the point, i completely re did the stocklist here it is:
2 female reg jds
1 blood parrot
1 ornate pim
1 mota
1 salvini
and maybe, just maybe a few(like 1-3) tiny terrorists, like convicts or firemouths. and i really dont see the harm in blood parrots, they are the coolest little wackjobs, and have the best personalitys.

That will work if you can keep aggression under control, but those are a lot of aggressive territorial fish for a 125, so I'm not sure whether that would work out or not. Also, I'd ditch the idea of cons and FM's (if you add 3 more, then you'd be just as overstocked as it would have been with the original idea).
