Going to be pruchasing a 72 inch - 125 gallon tank. I wanted to stock it with all male haps and peacocks. Some of the haps I decided on get 10 inches plus, the smallest fish in the tank will be about 6 inches. How many fish can you get away with stocking in a 125 gallon all male tank?
I have only 12 types of haps and peacocks I would like to stock so far, is that a nice conservative estimate? Or should I up the number of fish going in the tank?
The P. milomo, N. Venustus, E. Anagenys, and the P. sp. Phenochilus, are so far the only ones over 10 inches. I don't know what else to add...trying to keep the colors different enough. Any suggestions? I'm going all out with the filtration, the size of the tanks lets me put in mostly whatever I want in it. I don't want the filtration to limit the options. Probably going to get 2 fx5s, and a penguin 350 or two.
