Hi, recently I went out of home for 2 weeks, automatic feeder and all. The longest I’ve left the tank was a week and there was no issues. I came back to the sight of the feeder fell into the tank, and as you can guess, the fish hadn’t been fed and the tank was full of trapped food, the fish... sadly passed.
It’s been a while since that, I’ve been dosing ammonia into the tank so the filter stays running. The tank has a few of the healthy plants left, wood and rocks are placed randomly in a mess. Want to rescape everything. Now I’m thinking about the stocking.
The tank is 52 gallons (200L) and 3.4” long. It’s the fluval Roma 200, filtered by a fluval 307. My previous setup was a community. I’m incredibly open to ideas, I want to take it slow with the stocking. Here are some of mine, want to hear yours! I’m really interested in Biotope aquariums, so here!
Thinking of a black water amazon biotope, a single angelfish, a group of rams, corydoras, Otocinculus, Cardinal Tetra and some sort of hatchetfish. Just a few plants from the amazon.
I love gourami and loaches, both come from SE Asia. So mabye a Biotope, decently planted. A trio of pearl gourami, group of harlequin Rasboras and gold barbs. School of Panda Garra and Yoyo Loaches with a flying fox. Want bamboo shrimp but Yoyo Loaches would probably eat them.
Just an angelfish tank? Not sure how many, what tank mates but I love angelfish!
Shell dwellers? Some sort of colony. Would like some other tank mate.
Some sort of larger South American Cichlid?
