Sound Good?

[smackie]

i have a 75 gallon tank

do these fish sound good to be together

a school of tetras(30 maybe?)

2-3 ANGELS

a pleco

2 cory cats

tire track eel

black ghost knifefish

and an oscar


tell me if this is bad and give me other suggestions instead of an oscar but i still want a larger fish???
wat else

 

[juelz]

i dunno about wut everyone else thinks but in my opinion i think ur overstocked there

cuz black ghost knife can get up to 20"
oscars are 13+ inches
angels i think are usually around 6 inches
if ur talking about common pleco there about 12 inches or more

so like with all those fish together i think u might have too many

125 gal for the oscar, plus 250 gallons for the black ghost knife fish so the tank is to small.

Ya thats wat i thought but i love all these fish

and the oscar would eat the tetras right?

Plus the angel fish will eat neon tetra's so they are a no go area.

IMO i would not get the oscar and the black knife fish. but besides that it sounds good and i would add 4-6 more cory's sence they like to school.

in my 75 g tank have 2 wild green discus and 40 neons with 10 cory's

i hope this helps

Not necessarily. If the tetras are put in there first and then the angels are introduced when very small, they can live quite well together. I used to keep cardinals with Angels and it was a very elegant, peaceful setup.

Your 75 gallon would sound great with just a few revisions, if I may. Introduced slowly in this order.

15 corydoras. For variety you could probably mix a few species, but they school great in larger numbers.
20-30 tetras (if you are patient and wait for your tank to mature, 6 months, I'd hold out for cardinals, which are larger, and extremely beautiful.)
4-5 angelfish (they come in many varieties, but I personally prefer the wild-type. Something about the strips and the red eyes that's extremely elegant).
6 otos for algae consumption. Again, these are fish that require a mature tank.

If that's not your thing, I'd love to see Firemouths kept in that size a tank. Now, that's a beautiful cichlid and can be kept with species of similar size.
