G007 Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 Hello everyone just upgraded from a 10 gal to 28 Gal Bow front tank. I am not sure what to stock any idea would be much appreciated. I was thinking Angel fish, or Cichlids, someting colorful and how many. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danzig Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 i think you could do a pair of rams/apistogrammas cichlid wise. a male dwarf gourami would look nice also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Chicklets Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 how many cilchids can I fit into the tank? What are the dimensions of the tank? This will influence the number of and type of cichlids you can safely stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vapor Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 I have a similar size tank and had a small variety of Rainbows in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vallisneria Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 The amount of cichlids that will live in that tank will depend on what species of cichlid you choose to go with. In smaller tanks I usually go for a pair of cichlids with other community type fish like tetras to fill out the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albertan Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 You could do a pair of convicts. Lots of people poo poo them but they have tons of personality, are nice looking fish, and you can witness cichlid breeding behaviour on a regular basis. You could also pick up a small group of juvenile firemouths and see if a pair develops out of them. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinless Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 yep cons or firemouth pair. if you don't mind fry. dwarf cichlids maybe? more of a community setup might be possible in the 28. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
