yeah i was trying to figure out how to work around that one...like i said im still in the planning stage. 5000 neons huh? i was kind of hoping for a south american theme with an arowana, clown knife and a ray. maybe a few fast breeding cichlids like convicts to suppliment the food supply. shrugs just dreaming.

yup, SA is the theme. I'm all over the convicts. I actually wondered if there was a snowball's chance in you know where of a convict fry surviving. TFG, has anything survived from fryhood to adulthood on it's own in your tank?

BTW. I'll update this thread with pics tonight.

As long as you have sufficient cover in this tank like you are planning from your drawings then you will have a really good chance of cons surviving to adulthood. It would be nice to throw them in first and leave em maybe a month to get well established and if you are planning on plants it would help those get established too. Can't wait to see the pics.

Nope, not a single one out of about 10-15 spawns. To many predators in my tank that are very crafty.... I've had viejas and midas spawn in the tank too without a single survivor....
