my current tank is a 30 (36" wide) stocked with:
6 penguin tetras
3 rummynose tetras
4 corys with 2 more on the way once they grow bigger
1 Pleco
2 keyhole cichlids
~10 plants in the substrate, some floaters. eco complete on the bottom, gravel on top.
tank is going great so far amonia/nitrites are always 0 and nitrates no more than 10ppm.



anyway, i still wanted to get a angelfish/ram tank and i was thinkin that it might be easier in stead of having 2 very very similar tanks to combine them into one larger one. i know that all these fish have similar requirements so could they all do well together?
what i would like would be something like 6-10 penguins 10 rummynose, 6-8 corys, the 2 keyholes i already have, 3-4 bolivian rams 1:2 or 1:3 m/f ratio if i can, and ~6 angels.
id like to go with a 48" tank so id only be really gaining a foot of length. hopefully thats enough room to add a few rams to the keyholes/corys that i have now. my keyholes pretty much stay close to the bottom most of the time (unless they are searching for food)
also taller is better with angels so would the 90 be better or would the 75 be fine?
thanks in advance, *** learned so much from this forum. i really appreciate you guys :thumb:
