I lost interest in the hobby for awhile and didn't bother putting anything new in my tank for a very long time. There's so little in it now and I'm getting the urge to add something new again and need some help deciding which fish to add.
105 gallon, current inhabitants - 5 zebra loaches, 1 bristlenose pleco, 3-4 kuhli loaches, a few otos, 3 rummynose tetras (I used to have around 25 but lost them all one by one over the last year and a half). This is a low tech planted tank so, no CO2, 30% water changes 1x/month, nothing fancy. I want to keep the maintenance level the same as I'm expecting my first child in December and won't have time to devote to anything really picky, like discus. I'd appreciate any additional suggestions, issues you foresee or changes to numbers based on your experience with the fish.
Fish I'm thinking about:
- Building my Rummynose school back up to full strength, probably around 30 fish total.
- Some other type of tetra school, most likely Congos
- 8-10 roseline sharks
- 8-10 angelfish of some sort, I'm very unfamiliar with them but like that they are not spastic swimmers and seem a little more relaxing to watch
- Other suggestions?
