| This is my DREAM TANK I’ve had envisioned in my head for years!!! I already have a jump start with having my filters and sand running in a fully stocked 30gal aquarium since December 2010. But I’m moving to a new house and I finally have a chance to set up my “practical” dream tank. I’m going to monitor the water chemistry and general conditions and add fish accordingly; so my timeline is subject to change. Here is my set-up that I’m going to hopefully achieve:
SUGGESTIONS & OPINIONS WELCOME!!!
Top Swordtails Hi-Fin [pure red] 1-2 males, 5 females week 1 Silver Hatchet Tetras 5 week 2
Middle Cardinal Tetras 15-20 week 4 Orange Von Rio Flame Tetras 5-7 week 2
Bottom Kribensis 2 (mating pair) week 1 Cockatoo Apistogramma 3 (mating harem, hopefully) week 7 Blue Dwarf Cajun Crayfish 1-2 week 8 Albino Bristlenose Plecostomus 1-2 week 6 Corydoras [skunk or panda] 5-6 week 1
Miscellaneous Lots of Malaysian Trumpet Snails and various other invasive snails most folks consider pest which are god-sends to me. Cherry shrimp (an upgrade from the ghost shrimp I used to keep for live food for my cichlids :/ )
Plants Java Fern, Java Moss, Anubias, Corkscrews, Amazon Swords, and Hornwort week 1 ?? Ground cover not sure, baby tears?? Or some kind of creeping mossy stuff, idk Driftwood
Equipment Essentials 40gal breeder tank L36” x W18” x H17” 2 mature AquaClear 50 filters 40lbs mature Tahitian Moon black sand 10lbs black sand Flourite LOTS of nooks and hiding places
