rjwaz333  Small Fry Posts: 5 Kudos: 7 Votes: 0 Registered: 03-Jul-2005   | I'm going to get a 55-75 (75 if space allows). I want to do an asian tank. I have no idea what plants to have, but here are the fish I'd like to get: Pearl Gourami Moonlight gourami Blue Gourami Harlequin Rasboras(?) Clown Loach Snakeskin Gourami I'm going to have to figure out how many fish my tank will allow, but is that a good list? Last edited by rjwaz333 at 03-Jul-2005 15:45 |

The Loaches (so you need a big tank) & Rasboras need to stay in schools & welcome to FishProfiles.  http://uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/s8xi5heh/my_photos http://www.geocities.com/s8xi5heh/classic_blue.html http://groups.yahoo.com/group/buzaqq/ Last edited by jasonpisani at 03-Jul-2005 15:46 http://www.flickr.com/photos/corydoras/ Member of the Malta Aquarist Society - 1970. http://www.maltaaquarist.com |

| rjwaz333 Small Fry Posts: 5 Kudos: 7 Votes: 0 Registered: 03-Jul-2005 | Thanks. Is 1 gallon per 2 inches of fish a good formula? I figured out that I'd be able to have: 4 Pearl Gouramies 2 Moonlight Gouramies 11 Harlequin Rasboras 3 Clown Loaches 2 Blue Gouramies for fifty gallons. I figure that 1 gallon per 2 fish is okay. I cut out the Snakeskin gourami because according to it's profile it gets up to 9.8". Well, any ideas about plants? |

keithgh   *Ultimate Fish Guru* Posts: 6371 Kudos: 6918 Votes: 1542 Registered: 26-Apr-2003   | rjwaz333 My only concern would be the Blue Gourami, they would be the most aggressive of the Gourami you have selected. If you still would like the blue colouring try the "Opaline Gourami" they are extremly peacefull and very attractive variety.
