I wouldn't really recommend keeping fewer than 5 of the schooling Synodontis cats (i.e. multipunctatus) in a single aquarium. The Syno's will likely eat all the julie eggs, but the tight entrance of the shell may be able to keep them away from the Telmat spawn.sam_d said:
What order to add fish
Hi there. I set up a 65 gallon custom built tank 2 weeks ago now, and am starting to thing about stocking (don't worry, I intend to leave it at least a couple more weeks to get the water and filter nicely conditioned etc).
My current plan is to stock the following:
Cyprichromis leptosoma - 12
Telmatochromis vittatus â€" 2
Neolamprologus leleupi â€" 2
Julidochromis ornatus â€" 2
Synodontis multipunctatus - 3
What would be a sensible order in which to add the fish? Obviously I want to do it over a period of time in order to get the filter up to speed, but I want to do it quickly enough that there are as few territory problems as possible.
What do people think?
Thanks in advance!
