I'm getting ready to set up a 75gal tank (48" long) and need some help on stocking numbers for catfish.
For a pleco I want bristlenose, should I have one or two in that sized tank, and do they have to be 1ea of male and female if I get two?
I also want to get some pim pictus, definately at least 3 or could I safely go w/5. Also, I understand they'll eat anything, however since my cichlids can't have too many meaty foods, what do those of you who have pim pictus and african cichlids together feed yours?
The cichlids I'll have are:
Labidochromis Caeruleus - definately 6 (already have them in another tank)
Metriaclima Greshaki - how many depends on the number of catfish I get
Pseudotropheus Crabro - same as above.
Thanks for any and all help.
