hello hello again

I have had a re shuffle of my remaining tanks and have said goos bye to some of the little ones i havent bonded with so much!

so this is what i have

180ltr
40l x18hx16w

1xrusty pleco 20cm x8cmprox
1x worm line 15cm x 5cm prox

2 x breeding pair albino bn's and about 20 1cm fry breeding every month to 6 weeks.

4 x bollons mollys and babies in tow constantly breeding!!!!

60ltr tank

1 x betta splenda
1 x mudusa pleco 10-15cm
1 x long Fin BN


I want to keep letting the mollys breed as theya re so cute and the bn's.
I cant put the mudusa in the 180 as the male bn beats him up!!!

i am getting a new tank (yes i cant keep going on about it#)

the specs are

Specifications

Dimensions: 1200 x 477 x 745 mm / 47.2" (4ft) x 18.8" x 29.3"
Cabinet Dimensions: 1200 x 477 x 650 mm / 47.2" (4ft) x 18.8" x 25.6"
Filtration Pump: 900 Litres per hour Powerhead
Water Volume: 330 Litres


and i am also adding an external filter Aquarium External Filter 1400 L/H + 9W UV.


MY QUESTION:

1. IF YOU COULD MOVE THESE ROUND HOW WOULD YOU BETWEEN THE TWO TAANKS
2. WHAT PLECO'S COULD BE ADDED TO THE MIXTURE IN MY NEW TANK?


hope that all made sence

thansk for your help

cheers:drool:

To clarify, the size you quote after each fish, is that the size they are now?

So a 10-15cm Medusa in the 60l?

If they are the size the fish are now then for me the Rusty, Worm Line, Medusa go into the new one, the long fin goes into the 180 and then see how they all settle from there.

Steve's advice slightly different to mine and on reflection his is better, no point in risking the longfin disturbing the breeders so put that in the big tank as well.

lol thank you every one.

I dont actually have the 180ltr for tropicals to be put in anymore as my other half wants its for our axolotl!

So i have to spilt them between the 330ltr and the 60ltr but i do have a 30ltr if totally needed.

the medusa is in the 6oltr but only because bo matter where he goes he only ever sits in one place. he is totally static , has been since i bought him by mistake the lfs thought they where giving me a bn male. He has plenty of cover and no one to compete with and i only sleep about 3 hours a day so get plenty of time to see his movements day and night. AM i missing somthing here? Am i treating him wrong and this is limiting his behavious? I did my reasearch after i got him (as i was expecting a bn and they said they are very shy so i just figured he was VERY VERY shy.


from your advice im thinking;

60ltr
betta spelnder
longfin female bn
rocky the medusa
bEN THE Banjo (sitting under the sand)

330ltr
rusty
reid the worm line
mollys
bn x 2 + fry
(a common pleco to finish?):)
