Answer 2

I keep a 320 gallon, a 150gallon, 90gallon, 2 75 gallons, a 55 and a 56 tall, a 28 bowfront, a 29 regular, 2 10's, and several 5 gallons. I keep bettas in the 5's and 10's, the 29 regular is a breeding tank for my acaras, but houses cherry shrimp and snails as well. The 28 bow is a community of neons, hatchets, 1 male betta, and several kuhli's and cories. The 56 tall houses 4 angelfish, a raphael catfish, 3 bumblebee cats, and a king tiger plec. The 55 houses a baby jurensis catfish(who will move when he's big enough), and several young geophagus and severums destined for the big tank. One of the 75s houses assorted african cichlids, and 2 polyepterus buettokeferi. The other houses port acaras, the breeding pair of blue acaras, farlowella cats, rubbernose plec, and royal panaque. The 90 houses dojo, horseface, sidthimunki and kuhli loaches, tiger botia's, and assorted gourami. The 150 houses 9 adult discus, large schools of rummynose tetras, and cories. The 320 is pretty bare, just a large red head severum, 2 10 inch uaru, a large acara, and a 13 inch sailfin plec for now.

Answer 5

If this is a beginner starting a new aquarium I recommend platies first, and try to stick within a certain temerature and pH band, so that all ur fish are properly compatible to ur tank.
I have 4 platies, 4 golden barbs, 2 bristlenose plecs, and 3 leapord danios. Its a v. nice tank. It has a roman olive jug in it too. I'm very proud of that jug. It has a nice curve to it, but the algae seems to like it, so half the time its blending in the background as a kind of weed pot. My plecs like it in there. Its a nice shady place to hide when it gets a bit frenzied in the tank. Its nice and dark and safe. No other fish go in there. It has a big hole in the side so the fish can swim in and out. Its next to the filter box, and looks quite nice there in the corner. Its terracotta, and has lots of fake Barnacles stuck to the side. It does look very roman. Theres some pebbles next to that. The pebbles are quite nice. Some are brown, some are white, and theres a green one that got in by mistake, which I haven't taken out yet. I like to pretend i'm a fish sometimes, and that that green pebble is my best friend, and He's called organ. My nickname is organ when I go to orchestra. Ooh, do you watch dr who? That never has fish in it. The fish are awesome in my fish tank. They are blue, gold, and brown. The plecs are spotty.

I'm really enjoying myself writing this. You probably think I'm a right weirdo. Oh well. I think I am. Goodbye.

Answer 6

I currently have 12 freshwater tanks. I have everything from a 30 gal tropical community tank with swordtails, female betta, some tetras and a few other small fish and otto cats to a 55 gal with a giant gourami and several other reg. gouramies to a 100 gal with severums and convicts (south american cichlids). I breed N. tetracanthus (african cichlids) in a 40 breeder with a 10 gal fry grow out tank.

Your best bet for good ideas is to research when fish will do best in the tank you have, size wise and then go from there. Good Luck!

Answer 10

As I have very limited space for tanks I have 2 small hexagonal tanks. In one tank I have 15 neon tetras, 1 otocinclus called Fizzgig and 2 African Dwarf Frogs called Jen and Keira.

In the other tank I have 9 leopard danios, 1 otocinclus called Sir Diddymus and 1 African Dwarf Frog called Hoggle.

I think a "species" tank looks very good.
