I have yellow labs,red zebras,maingano,and spotted cats in my 55 gallon. Can I put loaches or snails with them? I'm thinking ghost shrimp would be a bad idea..
Sorry to hijack but why just bristlenose not common? Or is it just the size these get?
Ok cool. My missus thinks bns are scary so i cant have 1. Nice to know a common wud be okSorry to hijack but why just bristlenose not common? Or is it just the size these get?
Mbuna need lots of small-med sized cave areas and I think bristlenose are generally suggested more because they don`t grow too big and are able to use the cave areas too

I've heard tiger barbs can be ok in there.
I'm interested in adding either some ruby barbs or gold barbs to my tank but haven't been able to find out about them.
Well i have a 6" common so yes i know what you mean about the poo.another consideration when thinking about a common plec is the sheer amount of waste they produce , which in an already heavily satocked setup is going to put a hell of a strain on the bioload making water quality much more effort to maintain.
if youve never had a big plec you would be gobsmacked by the sheer amount they poo .
