	Good 29G set-up?
BLUIDMIK Fingerling Posts: 23 Kudos: 11 Votes: 1 Registered: 11-Nov-2003	I've a 29G with a Bristlenose Pleco and an Apple snail in it currently. I want to add the following- 1 ANGEL 7 RUMMYNOSE TETRA 2 BLUE RAMS OR 2 CURVICEPS OR 2 KRIBS AND 3 KUHLI LOACHES I haven't yet decided on whether or not I want the Rams, Curviceps or the Kribs, any suggestion on this would be appreciated as well. Is this combination too much? I feel I may be pushing the bio-load a bit. Thanks in advance,

Is your tank planted? That would help to support this bioload. If you keep up the water changes I think this stocking list should be fine.

Which one would coexist the best with this combo. I like all of them, I've had Rams in the past and really liked them, but thought about trying something new.
