How many fancy golds can i keep in a 75 gallon tank? Also what fish could i keep with them, i have south american Cs in there now, convicts, red devil, talipia, leporinus, obviously i have to get rid of them.

fancy gold what? golden barbs? like u know the cichlids should leave first.

Never heard of a fancy gold "barb"

Johnny I'm assuming you're thinking goldfish. In which case I wouldn't suggest more than 5 for the 75 with plans to move them as they grow. Remember that a full sized fancy can reach 12" long and is quite big around. Not only will it need the gallonage for waste purposes (I hope the tank is well filtered) but they'll also need it for space to swim.
