Hi Guys,
well ive finally finished my 65 gallon cichlid tank and it is absoulutly beautiful
my parents and i like it so much we are goin to do another 1
Its going to be a 75 gallon tank filtered 6 times/h and i have heaps of questions to ask.
1 - Can i Have 1 Oscar, 1 Male Convict, 1 Salvini ?
2 - Are Salvini Cichlids A Lot Of $$$
3 - Can I Use A 2 CM substrate of Brickie Sand ( The same size as beach sand )
4 - Do you need an air pump ?
5 - Diet of each fish
6 - Anything Else You Might Suggest.
Thanks Alot Guys

1- To start off with I would say yes. Long term I would say no. A male con will get upwards of 5-6" and very bulky. A salvini 8-9". In a 75, probably 4' right, I don't think it would work as the con and salvini are more aggressive than an oscar. So those 2 fish plus a full grown oscar I don't think it would work.

2- Depends I have seen them here for $20 for two inch fish and as low as $3-5 for a two inch fish.

3- If it isnt to jagged or sharp sure, I use play sand in mine.

4- I would say yes

5- Google....honestly there are lots of foods you could feed them.

The oscar in the 75 gal sounds good. i dont now about cons or savini´s but the oscar will do good in there. What kind were you planning on getting?
