so i know i'd made threads before about my diy tank, and it being 140ish gallons, well we got a little carried away, and now its 170, 171 to be exact, but anyway, i'm not too sure of what to put in it

posting pics in the pics forum tomorrow morning when i have batteries for the camera

here's what i've got in there so far

10 tiger barbs
1 red tailed black shark
2 blue rams
6 julii cory
4 gold neon rosy barbs
1 bristlenose pleco
3 white clouds

here's what i was thinking of having in there once its fully stocked
16 tiger barbs
1 red tailed black shark
2 blue rams
6 julii cory
6 gold neon rosy barbs
1 bristlenose pleco
8 white clouds
6 spotted cory (or some other type of cory)
5 yo-yo loach
4 keyhole cichlids (if i can find them and there's still room)

but i really don't know if they'd all get along (especially loaches and the rtb), so i was wondering if you guys had any ideas, or suggestions, or if it looks like it'd make a very nice tank
 
Tbh, I think you should have a massive shoal in there...170 galls...Kewl.

However, i guess I was thinking on the lines of Rummy Noses, excellent Schoolers and would look spectacular.

Tiger bards, look good i guess, just their reputation.
 
i've never had problems with mine, well, except for that one that got an ant stuck in its mouth...

but yeah, i was going to get rummynoses, until a friend of mine showed up one day with a bag of tigers and white clouds

i had originally had them in a ten and a twenty gallon, but they're much happier in the 170
