New Tall Tank -Ideas on Stocking


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Over the weekend I bought a tank 2ftx 2ft x 2.5ft tall. It does not have any lids so I am essentially going to use it as a 2ft cube tank, leaving the water level 10-15cm below the top of the tank. 

As the volume is approximately 220 litres can I stock this tank as I would a normal 4ft tank (not 4x2x2)? I am not sure what to stock it with and was hoping for ideas. I know most people when they hear its a tall tank usually recommend Angels, and I am not dismmissing them, but was hoping for some further ideas. The only options I am not considering are a planted tank and a Discus tank.

I keep both African and South American cichlids so no one is limited in their ideas or recommendations. I will use an appropriate canister filter on the tank probably in addition to a hang on the bank filter. Adequate lighting will also be provided to the tank. I will also provide adequate decor in regards to rock and gravel / sand depending which option I go with.

Any ideas will be most welcomed.
