I'm currently in the process of setting up my new 125G
. I've always wanted a 6Ft tank and very excited now that I have one. I do currently have a running 90G which has been up for about 6 months now. I have yet to decide if I will carry over what's in the 90G, or start completely fresh in the 125G.
Current 90G stock
7 Yellow Labs
6 White Tail Acei
5 Albino Socolofi
5 Synodontis Multipunctatus
All fish are currently between 1.5 - 2 inches. No spawning has taken place and I'm currently unsure of male - female ratio.
Now onto the 125G stocking, So far I'd to keep:
1M 4F Pseudotropheus sp. ''Williamsi North'' Makonde

1M 4F Metriaclima sp. ''Membe Deep''

1M 4F Cynotilapia afra Cobwe ''Orange Back'' albino

I know these 3 species have similar color with yellow and orange. Do you think this will be too much yellow / orange within the tank? Will the color similarity cause aggression issues within the groups?
The tank will need a strong dose of blue to contrast against the yellow / orange. Any recommendations would be very grateful. I was thinking maybe a group of 20 Demasoni's but not sure. I do also like Cynotilapia sp. Hara.
What would you do?
