Is My Tank Of For Ottos?

[Axyadbad]

I'm wondering if a 65l tank with dimensions of 60x30x36cm would be big enough for 3 ottos? The tank is heavily planted.

Thanks for any help,
Axy

go for it! im also going to do the same, and im gonna have a nice shoal of some kind of tetra in the tank too

Thanks mike and kyle
I'm also going for some tetra,kylealastairlove

I'm planning on 8 rummy nose tetra, 3 ottos and a centre piece fish, but I'm not so sure what centre piece to go for..

Any ideas? We seem to have similar tastes

 

[kylealastairlove]

awesome and yes we do have quite similar tastes by the sounds of things if i was going to have a centre piece fish i would more than likely go with some kind of apistogramma or perhaps a gourami of some sort

 

[Axyadbad]

love the apistos! Can I have a look at your setup possibly?

i'll have to take a picture and post it up for you, its not too great at the moment though its kind of under construction right now

heres a pic of what it looked like before i changed around recently

i kind of wish it was still in this way, but at the moment i have a lot more wood and a lot less plants i had a lot of trouble keeping my plants alive, so at the moment i have a few different bunch of crypts and a lot of java fern, i plan on fully planting my tank again though, think i can get it all right this time round cant wait to do it!

Look sweet mate, I liked it how it was haha.

I've got lucky with my plants, everything except my dwarf hair grass is doing well. Looking forward to finally getting some fish.

thanks lol lucky you, i guess i've just been through a load of plants seeing what does and doesn't work for me, i love crypts and they always work for me and most low light plants will go really well for me, i think i will just stick with mostly low light easy plants
