Would this be overstocked?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
And plans on upgrading?
 
2 gars would crowd the top of a 75 gal, plus i like gars and others in with cichs but feeding would b and issue,gars love live food and to compete the smart and fast cichs would be extra food if they cant catch them first my gars didnt care for pellets or flake but live yeah, but to keeper it can work but with trial n error,feed cichs first then throw the live in for the gars,the catfish,i would go pleco for the long term. Goodluck
 
I say ditch the sals. They are nasty. I have a 135 and a pair took over the whole bottom of the tank. Occasionally nipping on the giant danios swimming on top. My pair was only 5" male and 4" female
 
The tank would be fine with FMs but not Sals. Salvini a can be quite nasty. I'm with josdwi, I'd have more then that for stock.
 
whats the most i could do with that stock if there weren't two barracuda hujetas?#1: Dempsey, raphael, 2 firemouths maybe?#2: what about jd, green terror, salvini?#3: barracuda hujeta, jd, 2 fire mouths, and maybe a raphael or if there was no raphael any other suggestions? i like #3 but don't think i can find a raphael, what other catfish could i put in there or other cichlid, or what if there was no hujeta or raphael?thnks
