My scape is in a 90*45*45. The tank is currently cycling so I will be putting some fish in the tank in a few weeks from now but I am still unsure what do put in. The scape is composed of the following plants:
- Lobelia cardinalis
- Cryptocoryne Wendtii Brown
- Marsilea hirsuta
- Mini Pearl moss
- Spiky moss
- Flame moss
- Bolbitis heudelotii
- Microsorum pteropus Java fern (narrow leafs)
- Cryptocoryne balansae
- Anubias petite
- Rotala wallichii
- Lugwigia Palustris
- Hygrophila pinnatifida
- Bucephalandra SP green
- Hygrophila Polysperma 'Rosanervig'
- Java moss
And here is the general view of the tanks
For the substrate, I used Cal Aqua Labs Black Earth Premium soil along with some Green Base XR, Substrex and Multi-R.
So here are the fish that I was recommended to add and their approximate quantities but it seems a bit too much in my opinion.
- Neon tetras (x15)
- Cardinal red tetras (x15)
- Cherry shrimps (x20)
- Otocinclus affinis (x3)
- Sturisoma Panamense (x3)
- Dwarf puffers (for snails) (x3)
- Pearl Gouramis (x3) - These I already have as they were in the tank prior the scape.
That is a total of 42 fishes and 20 shrimps. My understanding is that shrimp and dwarf puffer is a no go (specially from the shrimp's point of view ).
What do you guys think and what would you recommend?
