~Please read my post about the gourami biotope for more background information~
This concept is very strange, and will probably be problematic, but, like I stated in my other thread, I have several spare tanks to put the problem fish in (if only temporarily) and I have no problem with rethinking my tank idea and trading in fish. I just want to hear your thoughts on this concept right now.
~ Paradisefish (normal)
~ Black Paradisefish
~ Albino Paradisefish
~ Spiketail Paradisefish
School of whiteclouds
School of danios
This is a COLDWATER setup, to discourage the fish from breeding (and of course for the danio/wcmm comfort)
Again, will be heavily planted, but with nothing at the surface, and I intend to have a lot of surface movement just to ensure the males can't build bubblenests.
Now, should I have multiple females per male? Or would that just escalate aggression?
Also, I was thinking of maybe having a dojo loach as clean up crew, with maybe a rubberlip pleco.
Is this plan overstocked?
Also, are there any other ways to reduce the aggression between males? How many different types do you think WOULD be acceptable?
Has anybody heard of/tried a setup like this? I'd really like to hear any thoughts and/or experiences related to this.
Thank you!
