Could Someone Please Check My Plan? :)

[Man of fish]

Plan:
Buying a new filter looking at the marineland penguin 350 bio-wheel, but looking for suggestions. If I get that my aqueon 30 200 gph will go to my 10 gallon and my 100 gph aqueon 10 will go to my 8.
Buying a new heater looking at the aqueon pro 150 watt. If I buy that it will go onto my 30 and my aqueon 100 watt to my 10 gallon and my aqueon 50 watt to my 8 gallon. Suggestions and opinions needed.

Tell me your experience with these along with the filters you like

I forgot the second half:
If I buy the penguin 350:
Stock it with this since it is almost double filtration:
2 Bolivian rams
12 harlequins and 2 cherry barbs or 6 cherry barbs
4 mollys
2 platys
5 platy fry (for now may be regimes in the future
8-12 corys (not sure which)
2 bristlenose pleco

Instead of what I was going to do with my 200 gph aqueon

2 Bolivian rams
8 harlequins or 4 cherry barbs (decreased because of fry)
4 Molly
2 platy
5 platy fry
6 corys
2 bn or 3 otos

Anyone?

Go for the biowheel. Very quiet, efficiant, plus lots of nooks and crannies for extra media. Extra filtration never hurt, although the current might be too much for slow-moving fish. But if you plug it up with media, current shouldn't be an issue. The aqueaon pro should be fine, it has good reviews

 

[Man of fish]

Yeah I'm going to stuff soooooo much media in that sucker lol. Ok do you know if I could do the first stock or if I'd have to do the second or a mix?

That's what she said

But seriosuly now, I would go with the first stocking, but instead of BN go for ottos...plecs poop too much in my opinion...

 

[Keeper Of Cichlids]

Sorry if I missed it but whats the tank size?

 

[Man of fish]

I never clearly stated it but I did state it was 30 gallons in a way. But it's 30 gallons 32"x13 1/3" x 19" LxWxH

Also I wanted to do the plecs because I wanted to attempt to breed them but not sure if I could.

[Man of fish]

Could anybody tell me if I could do the desired stock with the penguin 350? Desired stock is:

2 Bolivian rams
12 harlequins and 2 cherry barbs or 6 cherry barbs
4 mollys
2 platys
5 platy fry (for now may be rehomed in the future)
8-12 corys (not sure which)
2 bristlenose pleco

 

[Man of fish]

Any reviews, opinions, suggestions, or that's just plain wrongs?

I put your stocking, tank dimensions, and filter into ##151###. This is what it had to say:

2x Bolivian Rams
12x Harlequin Rasboras
8x Cories (I used Adolfo)
4x Molly
2x Platy
2x Bristlenose Plecos

Warning: When Bolivian Ram starts to breed, they may become too aggressive to co-exist with Harlequin Rasbora.
Suggestion: If you want to keep more than 1 Molly, minimum recommend male to female ratio is 1:2 (M:F). You will be less likely to experience problem if you get even more females.
Suggestion: If you want to keep more than 1 Platy, minimum recommend male to female ratio is 1:2 (M:F). You will be less likely to experience problem if you get even more females.
Note: Bristlenose Pleco needs driftwood.
Recommended temperature range: 24 - 25 C. [Display in Farenheit]
Recommended pH range: 7 - 7.2.
Recommended hardness range: 11 - 15 dH.


Warning: You should add more aquarium filtration capacity.

Your aquarium filtration capacity for above selected species is 93%.
Recommended water change schedule: 40% per week.
Your aquarium stocking level is 123%. [Generate Image]

 

[Man of fish]

Sounds good to me. I usually do 40% w/c weekly anyways, I have driftwood and I don't give a #41#### about the bibians being too aggressive when they breed. all checks out as a general guideline thanks.

Also I'd probobly cut the harlequins to 10 and get 10 or 12 corys. I was looking at the albinos, Juliis, sterbais, and pandas.
