Hello all,
I've had lots of tanks when I was younger, life happened and I just stopped with the hobby at some point.
I still watch a lot of content on YT about aquascaping, long story short, my wife decided to get me a tank so I can enjoy and explore the hobby once again.
I've always loved the cacatuoides, but never really had them, so I figured this was the perfect time to set something up.
Tank is 80x36x55cm, will run without CO2 but heavily planted and wood/rocks present.
I was thinking the following for fish;
- 1x male / 2x female cacatuoides
- 10-15x ditherfish, somekind of tetra? Personally I adore diamond tetras (Moenkhausia pittieri) but perhaps too big?
- 5-7 corydoras
- 2 ottos
- 1 pleco, which tend to stay on the smaller size.
Would anyone have some recommendations for the different fish? I'm not quite sure which pair nicely with the cacatuoides, any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
