Gday everyone, <
>I''m a newbie and was just after some advice for stocking my tank. The tank is 7ft by 3ft by 2.5ft and hold approx 1400 litres. It currently has 1 red devil (6inchs), 1 Sailfin Pleco (6inchs) & and a Jack Dempsey (5inches). So was basically wondering what else would be compatible with these fish and how many fish could be added with out overcrowding the tank once these fish reach a mature size. <
>Cheers

I personally dont keep Devils but my neice does and she has had her devil eat everything else in the tank. I also know that these fish grow fairly fast when given the room ie:- 7ft tank. Maybe stick to devils in one tank.
Wait till you see the size your pleco will grow too in this size tank.

Cheers Danae,

Its rare that a devil isnt a nasty piece of work. Mine wants to kill everything except for red top x breed fry. In all seriousness go to the lfs see what you like and then ask questions if they think they will go together. Know some fish you like and then ask the questions. I like americans and some others dont. You could have africans also. Its up to you
evz ;)

Thanks Dev11, as I said I don't keep Devils so I don't know much about them but I do hate to see a Question unanswered. I know what it's like to be a newby.

Cheers Danae.

I have a 55cm Pink Giant Gourami that would love a tank that size. It's in my swim pool but I want to put in some BIG fish instead so I would sell it cheap if it's going to a nice home. Email me if interested. aquaholic99@hotmail.com
