My 56 Gallon Setup

[WeeMan147]

I currently have 1 tiger oscar, 2 bala sharks, 3 tiger barbs, and 2 small black mystery snails. I have a zebra pleco on special order and hopefully will join the crowd in a week or two.

Nice tank, hopefully you known that you'll eventually need to rehome some of those.

wouldnt the barbs be lunch?

Thank you! Sorry about that blurry picture, but I didn't realize it until it was uploaded. I know the balas will need a bigger tank later in life, but that wont be a problem. Everyone tells me that I shouldn't have put the barbs in there, but there are never any problems between any of them. I am trying to find one or two more fish to put in there, I would prefer them to be colorful, any ideas?

I apologise in advance and this is just my opinion, but I don't like it. I think the luminous gravel and plastic plants / corals look really tacky and are not to my taste at all, and would look better with slightly more naturalistic decorations

If it were me, I definately wouldnt want to put £100+ fish into a tank with an oscar...Putting small fish in with oscars isnt a good idea, even if theyre too big to be eaten ATM. I also prefer natural set-ups, but whatever floats your boat I guess

i realised the zebra pleco part after re-reading your post. i could just imagine now, as you release the pleco into the tank, your oscar comes up and *chomps*. if you dont find that disturbing, i do. gems of nature like the zebra pleco should be treated with absolute care and respect.
