Shadows right, these guys will be in a 125 for life.

Well, heres the planned stocking list:

(4) 4" Cren. 'Proteus' (2 m/2 f)
(6-8) 3-4"Veija Aregntea (I will weed out a few when they get larger)
(4-6) Hoplarchus psittacus (if I can find some);)
and a few bottom feeders(some type of catfish, not sure yet)


These guys will be in several different tanks until the 125 is cycled. You guys would laugh at my filtration to begin the cycle, several old HOBs that are for 30 gal. and 55 gal but I am starting my first DIY sump with an old 29 gal. tank I have. I'm gonna start on it sometime next week when my silicone comes in. :):):)

Nice, I like the stock list. Youre gonna hafta look around online for the parrots. They are sorta few and far between right now. Also, I dont think that you will have any stocking probs for a while. As of right now in my 100g I have 1 14'' lentic, 2 12-14'' monos, 1 6'' festae, 1 8'' carpinte, 1 6'' bellycrawler, 1 9'' royal plec, and 3 4-6'' vieja synspilum. Thats a bit overstocked.......
 
D+mn Rob. Got some pics of the tank. That would be a tank to just sit down and enjoy for a while.

I actually had a guy PM me from Georgia with a 8" female and a 12" male. A little bigger than I wanted to start with but I might have to get them if I don't find any smaller.

Who's king of the tank?

The lady lentic no doubt. Shes already killed a festae and was workin on the carpinte really nicely until I threw in the viejas as some little punching bags to evenly distribute the violence.The little Bcrawler still cant wander out of its little hollow log lenticulata shelter. So far all looks peaceful since then. I was checkin it out the other day and got all bummed cause I hafta get rid of all these fish next month due to a move Im makin. Oh well, I got the recipe and Ill do it up again but even better in the summer. Best of luck with your setup and keep us posted.
