    That 150 really is a beautiful tank. Wow kinda surprised you've got blue acara baby's already. I've always loved blue acara's they are a peaceful fish except when there guarding there fry. I really love your selection of fish in you're tank. That Albino hekulei is one of my all time favorites. Well i enjoyed it. Thanks bro.

    Did u intentionally put the snails in or did they sneak off of the plants? I've had pest snails Sneak off of Java fern and water lettuce. Had to take down my guppy tank it got so bad.
    I've made a habit of visually inspecting any plants I get from then.
    Question tho, what schooling fish would u suggest for a tank of larger ish (I say ish because they're large. Jack Dempsey, Gold Saum, Oscar) all of which are good with goldfish but want something that schools that won't become 12 inch oscar food. This oscar won't attack a goldfish bigger than 3 inches but happily mows down 6 - 7 inch minnow

    Looks really good! You should get some Whiptail Catfish to help with the algae in there too. Did you consider the Red Tailed Hemiodus rather than the Rose Line Sharks? Would have meant they are all South American fish that way.

      Thank you! I considered a lot of schooling fish, but have really wanted to find a way to keep roselines. Although they aren't South American, they are very compatible with peaceful American cichlids, so thought it went well!

      ​@@CichlidBros my next tank is a total change for me too - focusing on harder water fish but no where near each other. So smaller Central Americans, Rainbowfish and Synodontis from Lake Tanganyka. Calling it a disco tank because everything should be a bold colour.

    The thing that I love of the Denison Barbs is that they look very much like the Siamese Algae Eaters but they swim in the flow, I think that a good school of Cardinal Tetras will be the best in this beautiful tank, will you add some Echinodorus and a female for your Apistogramma?

      Be careful saving babies, the same thing happened to me. I ended up with 7 tanks, 4 full of babies, then raising them to a sellable size. Then I was running back and forth to my local pet store, 45 minutes away to bring the fish. I was breeding Frontosa, Julie’s, Calvus and Dolphins. Good luck.
