Anton Fingerling Posts: 43 Kudos: 8 Votes: 0 Registered: 07-Apr-2003	I jus recently moved my two Pacus to the outside pond, Now my tank is empty. I was thinking of adding 12 discus and some cardinals. What do you suggest i put in my tank?

I would put all my fish in it and have no furniture in the living room. dream dream dream. I actually also like the idea od the discus, if you are going to mean and not send it to me!

Janna Mega Fish Posts: 1386 Registered: 24-Aug-2003	If you want discus and tetras, make it a South American tank. I wouldn't mix clown loaches and stuff in there, but that's just me. Clown loaches get so big and are so active, they'd draw attention away from the discus. Do something like: 12 discus (I like the more natural colors myself) 50 rummynose tetras (fantastic schoolers with great color) 25 cories ( whatever type or types you like) 6 blue rams 8 assorted varieties of apistogramma (whichever you like and are readily available) 6 bristlenose plecos They shade the glow of it with their mossy-misty costumes, They wear masks of silk, porcelain, brass, and silver, So as not to mislead with their own, ordinary faces.
