	Looking for stocking suggestions
renoharps Hobbyist Posts: 97 Kudos: 75 Votes: 5 Registered: 21-Feb-2005	I have a new, planted 29g that currently has the following: 1 - BN 1 - Dwarf Blue Gourami 1 - Kribensis (female) 6 - Green Catfish (Brochis Splendens) I'm looking for suggestions for additional stock. I don't want any small schooling fish. I was thinking of adding additional dwarf Cichlids like a Ram, Cockatoo, or Keyhole. Maybe other Gouramis such as a Pearl or Honey. Maybe an Angel?

I'm not sure about mixing gouramis. If you want to try I'd go with the honey over the pearl because of their similar size with the dwarf. Have lots of floating plants too for hiding places. A single angel would probably be ok considering the height of a 29g. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is water at the bottom of the ocean

renoharps Hobbyist Posts: 97 Kudos: 75 Votes: 5 Registered: 21-Feb-2005	I'm not really looking to breed the Krib. I don't think I have enough experience with Cichlids yet to go through that hassle. Are the Blue Rams really that sensitive to water chemistry? Last edited by renoharps at 08-Jul-2005 16:53
