Hi all,
I have just purchased a Juwel aqaurium "Vision 260"
I have set it all up and waiting patiently for the correct water conditions before buying my fish..What I would like to know is..

1.How many fish of say, 3 inches can live happily in this size tank?

2.What species can live together happily?

I have seen some beautifully colerd ones at my local fish stockist..
Thnaks in advance..

Your best bet is to find a particular fish you want to keep, find out if its suitable for your tank, then build your tank around that. Also read everything you can on cycling on this site if you haven't already.

What kind of fish in particular? How big is the tank? Without this basic info I can't really give you any help.

A vision 260 holds 260litres of water= just over 68 us gallons.
For your fish, I would suggest that you have a look to see what different types of fish you like,research them using this site and google and enjoy yourself. The normal rule for fishkeeping is 1inch of fish per gallon of water....although this can be a bit variable. HTH.
What types of fish have you been looking at in your lfs?
