Hi all, My First tank is cycling and i'll be adding my first fish on sunday. I have been working on a list of fish I would like to put into my tank over a period of time (not necessarily in this order) and am hoping someone can check if they will be fine together. I have based my choice on a few things including size, preferred area of tank, PH, Temp, Max size and whether they are best in groups (single, pair, shoal etc) My tank info i listed in my signature and i'll be adding a few plants and obstacles/ornaments/hideaways. obviously I dont want to overcrowd the tank and am basing qty's on 1 inch per gallon of water. Here Goes: 3 or 4 Zebra Danio 2 Ram Cichlid or Kribensis 1 Red Tailed or Rainbow Shark 1 red line torpedo barb 1 Siamese Fighter if there is any advice with choice can you let me know as I have been racking my brains on what to get Thanks Kev 125L Fluval Roma Tank, Fluvel 3+Filter, Fluvel Tronic 150W Heater, Fine Pea Gravel, Hood Lighting with 2 x T8/24" strips (For Now) - water temp=24 deg, 6.5-7.2ph Sponsored links

Hi Kev and welcome to the forum. Nice to see you have researched. I would go for the kribensis as rams need a mature tank and can be difficult to keep long term. Everything else looks fine to me. I must admit I am more of a tetra fan than danios but that is personal choice http://www.fishtankforum.co.uk
