Okay, so I got a baby grow out tank, which has been actively used but I know there will come a time that there won't be baby fish in it. The babies added to it are moved from a nursery once they're too big and moved to the 10 where they learn to eat adult foods.
But I am thinking of adding a fish or two that can keep the cycle in this tank when there are no babies.
Criteria:
--must be suitable for a 10g
--must be solo or up to a trio (no schoolers)
--non aggressive
My parameters:
GH 89.5ppm (5DH)
KH 143ppm (8KH)
PH 7.4
Temp range 72-78
Most babies in the tank are usually corydoras, so upper level fish are much preferred.
I already have sparkling gouramis in another tank, not looking at adding those to this, though as of the moment I have 2 temporarily in the 10 with the babies that my friend is taking once she's available for them.
This is the tank, so something that would enjoy this type of setup would be great.
Probably grasping at straws here but worth picking peoples brains.
No shrimp please, they can't handle the heavy water changes needed for a baby tank.
