Thanks for the very kind offer of a female. I don’t have any snails but the ancistrus and corydoras will probably hoover up any eggs, while the tetras would no doubt deal with the fry. I’ve read a lot of stories on these fora about breeding females being hyper aggressive though and am not sure...
Thanks, I appreciate the advice. My LFS suggested two males would be ok together (and the chap I spoke to kept A. Cacautoides at home). I was nervous about it but didn't want the complications of a mating pair and felt 1 fish would be a bit mean!

I have a 300 litre (120 x 55 x 53cm) aquarium. It is heavily planted (with S.American plants), with numerous caves, visual barriers, and a decent layer of botanicals on a sand substrate.

Hi all,
I'm new to the forum. I am setting up a 300l (80 US gallon) rimless Amazon biotope aquarium. It will be blackwater, with moderate planting and CO2, and lots of botanicals, wood etc.
I plan to stock with:
30 x tetras (species TBD), or possibly 2 x 15 of 2 different species
1-2 x...
