300L Vs 200L Stocking Options

[TomShootsPhoto]

Hi!

SO as many of you know, I now decided to get a new tank. I settled between the 200 and the 300L mark, I just don't know which one to take.
I have a 6 inch angelfish, and a BN.

(Got rid of the clown loaches )

I want a lot of fish ... SO what do you recommend for the 200 and the 300L?

(I make my decision based on the stocking! )

I would go for the 300l and get another 4 or 5 angels, a couple more BN's and a large shoal of Columbian tetras (or some other deep bodied ones)

Edit: You really want 2 foot tall for the Angel, so maybe look at some of the Aqua One tanks. I have the Aquience 1200R.

How many columbian tetras can i add? They look great!

 

[fishprotector]

I would say around 8.

If you dont mind me asking, what tank did you go for?

The 200L, but untill February, I can still change my mind. (Since it's a custom tank)

What about this:
4 angels, 2 BN, 5 african Chichilds. How does that sound? Are they compatible?


Or do you have any suggestions?

* My tank is going to be 250L !!

Ditch the African cichlids. They have completely different set up requirements then south Americans and most of them would be far too aggressive for Angels. What are the tank dimensions?

The tank dimensions are :250Lx20Wx50H
I ordered sand, some wood and tall plants with it too. And a 1000L/H filter

would help if you were a little more descriptive as to what you were getting, whos making it, what filter make / model, what plants and what sand etc. Its all a little vague.

My tank is made by oceanlife aquatics.

I ordered 10x Egeria densa and 10x Echinodorus amazonicus,
and 5x Anubias afzelii. (Not from the same company).

I am also getting about a meter long wood, and the sand is playsand, and a lot of it. I'm also going to get some rocks and some more plants

But depending on the fish I put in it, the design will change ofc.

* The filter is a tetratec ex1200....
