Hey guys,

I am getting a 125g in the next couple of days that will be holding all of my discus which include 6 discus ranging from 6+ to 4.5 plus (stunted). Also just to be sure how many discus can I keep along with the other fish in a 125g.

I wanted to know which fish I should not take chances on moving to the new community tank. The only fish that have not lived with some of my discus are the ones in bold font.

5 albino Cory
2 Panda Cory
1 Albino BNP
1 Black Ghost This one did but it was only 4" at the time it is now 6"
1 Red Whiptail cat
2 Checkerboard Cichlids
3 German Blue Rams
5 Cardinal Tetras
3 Harlequin Rasps
2 Hillstream Loaches
&
2 Flying Foxes

Thanks for the assistance,
Mishka

I'd say panda corys & most hillstreams would live longer at lower than discus temps. The loaches also like more current than discus. The others would probably be fine except maybe the BGK, I haven't kept them

I'd research the temperature requirements for each species. Some fare rather poorly at the higher temps discus enjoy...

Start here, maybe-
