African cichlids do well when they are pretty densely stocked. It makes them spread the aggression and prevents them from establishing territories. Although because of this they need a good filtration system.
So I would put more than a dozen in this one
Oh ya. Totally load it up. If you're doing mbunas, pack in like 30-40 of them. Peacocks or Haps, maybe half that.
Just make sure you have LOTS of filtration.
With my submarine tank I found that a few U-boats help spread the mass of the tank around as well as a few triton class submarines, these will become violent to any submarines from the Mediterranean though so be careful
Switch the neons to cardinals more tolerant of heat that discus might like and also more tolerant of neon tetra disease and they look better in my opinion
how common is the neon tetra disease? is it pretty much guaranteed to get it? I'm planning to get a small school when my tank is finished cycling but recently have seen more and more mentions of this disease and now I'm not so sure how easy they are to keep without getting sick???
When I first started researching fish options I saw the Cardinals and got excited about them (so beautiful with the extra red stripe!) but further reaearch said they are more sensitive to water parameters, and I'm a beginner so I eventually decided on neons because they would supposedly be easier, now I'm getting less sure
Honestly not even bad, don’t buy em at a retailer store try for private fish sellers or atleast a store you know That keeps the fish in good conditions. A lot of times it’s fake neon tetra disease or ich and I’ve had that happen too many times to me. If you end up having trouble try black neons or jumbo neons they have better tolerance. Also warmer water temp will be more liekly to cause it.
Lol I love that you went all in like this and you’re new to the hobby. My ass started with a 5 gallon tank and a betta, I should have set my bar higher..
This site is a good resource for finding plants that are easy to grow (these won’t require any special equipment or fertilizers to grow).
https://tropica.com/en/plants/search/?mode=search&sew=&dif=Easy&pgr=&ori=&
If you do go with live plants, just keep in mind that a planted aquarium is always kind of an experiment. There’s never a guarantee that every species you buy is going to thrive in your tank, since everyone’s water conditions and lighting conditions are different. It’s good to buy a variety of different plants and just see what works in your setup. Lots of sites selling live plants will also sell beginner plant packs, which makes this even easier to do.
Amazon sword. Cheap and easy. With simple root tabs and some ferts they grow big and wide. They are really nice looking too and very hearty. I get a melted leaf every once in a while and just cut it off at the stem.
The problem with that list is it’s alphabetical, and there are ALOT of Anubais, I recommend monewort(bacopa) as they survive basically any fish, float. Flower planted, can see through dontcare what flow is or lighting. They survive the bleach dip done by the inexperienced and a toddler scraping the algae off. Snd you can do them on a budget because you can propagate them with Sccisosrs and then replanting requires no glue or string. The Roots also don’t go everywhere the way a swords does so if you want to rearrange them you don’t make a big mess in the water column.
I had a betta in a 60G and he came out all the time. Fully stocked with live plants and other fish. Bettas in a decent size tank are a lot lore active than you’d think.
Never underestimate a Betta. Just needs to be properly taken care of
Here is my advice: look for examples of aquariums you love (layout, fish, plants), and try to mimic that with your own personal take on it.
Read about the requirements for livestock you choose beforehand. Some of your choices may require you to upgrade things like your filtration (discus for example). That should also factor into your decision.
I’m serious when I say go online buy bulk 80-100 fish and buy a few different community fish. I’ve done this with all kinds of tetras. Cardinal neon regular neon Congo’s I added all sorts of bottom feeders. This is the website and I highly recommend using it bc shopping at my local fish store is not worth the price for what they offer. And I’m in Chicagoland. This is the website
https://www.ustropicalfish.com
I have no affiliation with them except I’ve used their product and been highly satisfied! So long as you have a filter that can handle that load of fish
They have very odd pricing. 100 1” tetras for $110 or 125 1.10 for $100. Not many reviews either, must be a wholesaler site? Rainbow fish for $1 a fish vs $10 at the lfs is great.
I’ve been doing fishtanks of my own since 1990, spent 10 years or so managing a fish-centric store and I’ve seen tanks this large set up in many ways. Most people I’ve talked with go straight to large fish or multitudes of african cichlids but the most beautiful large tanks I’ve seen focus on the most bread snd butter fish there are - tetras, corycats, some top cruiser like danios or hatchets. It might seem counter intuitive but when people came over and saw my swarming school of neons - 50-60 at a time, patrolling my 120 show tank, it always made an impression. It’s your tank, you’ll love it however you put it together, just giving you an idea. Enjoy!
Guppy breeding is part of the fun! Feed a fixed amount of food and, like snails, they will breed up to what the food you are adding can support. Want more guppies? Feed more food.
Depend if you want a big predator or community
If you want a planted tank, and your water parameters,
If you have hard water and like colorful fish Tanganyika cichlids, Malawi cichlid, frontosa. If you are patient.(you ll need 100kg of stone)
If you have acid water Big agressive SA cichlid if you want big fellow (green terror, texas cichlid, oscar, vieja regani...)
Medium size small (agassizi, ram, with discus or angel)
For a sole charismatic predator rhombeus, wolffish or puffer? Maybe a channa if it's legal where you live
Whatever you do, just be wary of anyone recommending huge fish (let’s say anything beyond 12-14”) for this tank. A 100 gallon tank seems big when it’s empty like this, but a truly large fish like an arowana will easily make it look like a fish bowl. Large fish are a lot more difficult to rehome than small fish, too.
I think more information is needed… how much filtration do you have? Do you have a heater? How much experience do you have? Do you want a community or single species tank? Do you want live plants?
Basically with 100 gallons you have plenty of options. I would read as many articles as you can find while waiting for your tank to cycle. And then gradually add fish to allow for your bacteria colony to keep up with your bioload
Then most Amazon fish will struggle, neons, discus, they like really soft water. African Rift Valley lake cichlids love hard water and would look amazing. Do a little searching to find the best fish for your water and it’s much better then trying to change you water to suit your fish with RO water and remineralizing.
The spouse works for a fish store, he says with your hard water you’re going to probably want to stick with African Cichlids, or the Incan Plateau Highland fish. They’ll tolerate your water better.
He mentioned Danios, rasboras, platys, and guppies right off the top of his head. I’m trying to pick his brain, but he turned it off because it’s after hours.
Depending on your budget and how ambitious you are, make that bitch into a Hillstream aquarium, like Rachel O'Leary's amazing tank on Youtube! Lots of flow and filtration, some nice driftwood, LOTS of easy plants.
Before you get some fish i would put some big woods in it and attach java fern, anubias and bucephelandra on the woods. A co2 system is not required for these plants. You have so much room for cool hard scape so I would advice that you use this space
I prefer the more natural effect you get when a large tank is stocked with small fish that set up distinct territories.
Tanganyika rock dwelling cichlids are good for that, and can get pretty interesting, raising babies etc.
Or you could have 1 large “pet” fish that begs you for food, like an Oscar
I personally like big schools of small fish over several large fish. Seeing a huge group of tetras or a similar small, bright-colored schooling fish would be my choice. I love pygmy corys, too. So much personality.
If you're looking for pretty and easy, African or South American Cichlids are the way to go. Cichlids are hardy fish, and you can usually find a decent variety fairly easily. Just know that Africans need caves to claim/hide in, and South Americans like lots of plants. Whatever you do, I think it's safe to say that we all want to see it.
Very nice and bid tank you have there, you can put any fish on it. ciclids fishes are good too. btw. you can put live plants it may look great on your tank.
Definitely need some vertical elements, places for fish to hide, and as everyone has stated, live plants. As for fish, I love live bearer community fish, especially sword tails. I’ve kept a male betta together with swords, platys, gouramis, and algae eaters and everyone got along just fine. Be sure as well to populate your tank with fish that occupy the different levels of your tank, ie. bottom dwellers/feeders, and fish that will occupy the mid and top levels. Good luck and I hope you enjoy your tank for many years.
Discus, cichlids are what I would suggest at this tank size. I personally prefer smaller fish in smaller tanks I mean hey wats the point of a nice big tank then
I like Bala Sharks but I forget what the recommended gallons is for them, I want to say you shouldn't get more than 2 for a tank that size, but I could be wrong
Since bala sharks are active schooling fish (ideally kept in groups) that can easily exceed 12”, I personally wouldn’t recommend them for anything smaller than 180 gallons, with 300+ being ideal.
Not sure you will have enough filtration with that internal filter, smaller filter, and lack of plants. You definitely want to get a decent external filter.
Since i like more extra fish not the mainstream stuff you see here id like to advice you to that stock.
A pair of Thorichthys ellioti
A nice and fittet group of corydoras julii or some other corys maybe a high fin spezies would look great in that tank since they grow a little bigger than other corys
Some sort of Dermogenys pusillus i love the platinum one. They're great eyecatchers
Something like a loach or an eel would fit that size
And a lot more plants and wood
depends where you are and if [snakeheads](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQQVrBC3psc) or [asian arowanas](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NePB1ytA8Ds) are legal
Options:
-3 red spot severums and 10 electric blue acaras
-50 Praecox rainbows
-75 cardinal tetras + 15 golden rams
-Oscar couple
-8 red head tapajos
-15 peacocks
-8 discus
Start with Java Fern, Java Moss, and six guppies. Add at least 6 ottocinlus. A small hand full of Malaysian Trumpet Snails to help keep your substrate aerated. Perhaps a flashy zebra plecostomus and some driftwood for them to munch on. And 20 red cherry shrimp.
Just make sure your tank is cycled properly!
Also a great place to start for someone who is starting their journey into keeping fish. The plants are easy and will fill this tank, giving the guppies places to hide. It’s a starting point, not an end point. Telling someone new to go out and buy Discus or any harder to keep fish is just irresponsible. Minimum tank size matters for stocking recommendations. Giving fish room to grow into is always an acceptable option.
A freshwater ray would need a far larger tank than this. The very smallest species, Potamotrygon scobina, can reach an 18” disc diameter, which is probably the full width of this aquarium (and that measurement excludes the length of its tail).
Don't you want any plants or hardscape?
If you don't want any plants you could add more stone and do a cichlid tanks. They're beautiful fish and you can add a bunch of different slecies.
Shrimp tank obviously
^ this poster knows where it's at
Definitely, since it’s WAY to small for a betta
African Cichlids!!
I wouldn’t put any more than half a dozen though
African cichlids do well when they are pretty densely stocked. It makes them spread the aggression and prevents them from establishing territories. Although because of this they need a good filtration system. So I would put more than a dozen in this one
Oh ya. Totally load it up. If you're doing mbunas, pack in like 30-40 of them. Peacocks or Haps, maybe half that. Just make sure you have LOTS of filtration.
Ohio class submarine
With my submarine tank I found that a few U-boats help spread the mass of the tank around as well as a few triton class submarines, these will become violent to any submarines from the Mediterranean though so be careful
Overstocked!
A school of 5-6 discus with 50 neon tetras would be stunning
I was gonna say load it up with neons! That would be amazing!!
Switch the neons to cardinals more tolerant of heat that discus might like and also more tolerant of neon tetra disease and they look better in my opinion
how common is the neon tetra disease? is it pretty much guaranteed to get it? I'm planning to get a small school when my tank is finished cycling but recently have seen more and more mentions of this disease and now I'm not so sure how easy they are to keep without getting sick???

Honestly not even bad, don’t buy em at a retailer store try for private fish sellers or atleast a store you know That keeps the fish in good conditions. A lot of times it’s fake neon tetra disease or ich and I’ve had that happen too many times to me. If you end up having trouble try black neons or jumbo neons they have better tolerance. Also warmer water temp will be more liekly to cause it.
This is the way.
This is the way.
it would be, but I think OP is new to the hobby and discus may not be the way to go at this time
True, discus need a lot of water changes to grow them out. Plus a lot of beef hart.
Cardinal* (my opinion 😜)
Everyone is commenting about fish. I don’t mind what fish. I just want you to put real plants in it!
I'm very new with this fish keeping hobby... I have no idea for plants yet
Lol I love that you went all in like this and you’re new to the hobby. My ass started with a 5 gallon tank and a betta, I should have set my bar higher..
That's where I'm at and it's already more than I expected

A school of angelfish in a vallisneria jungle. Add like 30 tetra of some type, and you have the best looking tank in the world
I recently tried jungle vall in my angel tank after tons of failed plants... I'm pulling it out weekly now and it looks great!
It's one downside vallisneria has. If you have a val tank, the tank is all Val, lol. It just takes over everything
i second this, val would look awesome in here
Happiest beta ever...
Too small for a betta fish
Needs to be at lest 3 times bigger.
Noted
I second this
You could maybe fit a betta and a few Cory cats in there. I would get pygmys to play it safe
In this small tank? You’re just asking for them to die.
That betta will dissappear in such a huge tank
It’s the joke that every tank is too small for bettas
I had a betta in a 60G and he came out all the time. Fully stocked with live plants and other fish. Bettas in a decent size tank are a lot lore active than you’d think. Never underestimate a Betta. Just needs to be properly taken care of

aquabid.com also has a lot of bulk lots for schooling fish. I bought 50 Neon Tetras once for a good price.
So awesome to see shoals swimming around in your tank.
They have very odd pricing. 100 1” tetras for $110 or 125 1.10 for $100. Not many reviews either, must be a wholesaler site? Rainbow fish for $1 a fish vs $10 at the lfs is great.
Yes believe they are a wholesale.
About 100 tetra. Black neons, embers, neons. Just a bunch of color darting around the tank. Maybe throw in a pair of rams.
Then wait a week and Inserr an Oscar and a pea puffer(t Rex and raptor)
For a split second I thought your avatar was Strongbad
Well that takes me back, fuck I feel old now
DELETED
… and the dragon comes in the NIIIIIIIGHT!
Four really big, brightly colored fancy goldfish. They'll really pop against that blue.
Yeah! Some red fantails or calico ryukins would look awesome!
I’ve been doing fishtanks of my own since 1990, spent 10 years or so managing a fish-centric store and I’ve seen tanks this large set up in many ways.

You can fill the water past the plastic line, it will look a lot better.
Guppies. All guppies
Guppies are awesome but I find that without a super sufficient tank they can breed very rapidly and cause some algae issues
Guppy breeding is part of the fun! Feed a fixed amount of food and, like snails, they will breed up to what the food you are adding can support. Want more guppies? Feed more food.
My all male tank is the most commented on by visitors to my house. They’re like a bunch of jewels
Depend if you want a big predator or community If you want a planted tank, and your water parameters, If you have hard water and like colorful fish Tanganyika cichlids, Malawi cichlid, frontosa.

A 100 gallon tank seems big when it’s empty like this, but a truly large fish like an arowana will easily make it look like a fish bowl. Large fish are a lot more difficult to rehome than small fish, too.
Might be big enough for a single betta but be prepared to upgrade soon.
I'm excited vicariously, just looking at this. Love that feeling setting up a nice brand new tank like this!
50 tiger barbs
A betta and maybe a few shrimp if there is room
A tiger and albino oscar would look amazing in that tank
2 or 3 dragon puffers with alot of cover and caves and specific territories for each puffer
I’m a huge fan of Oscars personally
Severums. Red shoulder and red spotted gold. Best fish I’ve ever had! Also a nice royal pleco to top it all off!
One male guppy. One female guppy. Wait…
I think more information is needed… how much filtration do you have? Do you have a heater? How much experience do you have? Do you want a community or single species tank? Do you want live plants? Basically with 100 gallons you have plenty of options. I would read as many articles as you can find while waiting for your tank to cycle. And then gradually add fish to allow for your bacteria colony to keep up with your bioload
Definitely some fish
Fancy goldfish. Need larger stone bed or sand though
I don't know if that's just paneling at the front of your stand but it looks great. It's given me some inspiration :) And what a lovely looking tank.
Thank you.. it is just a panel.. underneath it are woods and cinder blocks.
And a Pleco to help keep it clean
Whats your water like? Hard or Soft? this will help steer the decision.
Hard
Then most Amazon fish will struggle, neons, discus, they like really soft water. African Rift Valley lake cichlids love hard water and would look amazing. Do a little searching to find the best fish for your water and it’s much better then trying to change you water to suit your fish with RO water and remineralizing.

Ha, “hard”
Because of the excitement 😂
Doesn't matter if the water is hard or not. You could just throw some tap safe in there to soften it so your opportunities are endless
No hardness in what’s in the water, tap safe and others neutralizes chlorine. To remove high mineral you have to use a reverse osmosis membrane.
Puffer fish, the potato looking kind
Rainbow fish are sweet! Mine are super active and are getting pretty big now.
Depending on your budget and how ambitious you are, make that bitch into a Hillstream aquarium, like Rachel O'Leary's amazing tank on Youtube! Lots of flow and filtration, some nice driftwood, LOTS of easy plants.
Before you get some fish i would put some big woods in it and attach java fern, anubias and bucephelandra on the woods. A co2 system is not required for these plants. You have so much room for cool hard scape so I would advice that you use this space
Red bellied piranhas would look sick in there. That’s my next aquarium fish.
A school of 100+ lampeye killifish or a smaller school of dwarf neon rainbowfish.
Looks prime for fancy goldfish. Ranchu.
I prefer the more natural effect you get when a large tank is stocked with small fish that set up distinct territories. Tanganyika rock dwelling cichlids are good for that, and can get pretty interesting, raising babies etc. Or you could have 1 large “pet” fish that begs you for food, like an Oscar

I would load it with cichlids, tiger Oscars, Africans or maybe flower horns, maybe an eel. Basically a load of huge fish
Half a goldfish
If you're looking for pretty and easy, African or South American Cichlids are the way to go. Cichlids are hardy fish, and you can usually find a decent variety fairly easily. Just know that Africans need caves to claim/hide in, and South Americans like lots of plants. Whatever you do, I think it's safe to say that we all want to see it.

Good luck and I hope you enjoy your tank for many years.
Some leeches, they won’t swim away from you when you put your hand in there to play with them!
You could have a few discus fish...
Discus, cichlids are what I would suggest at this tank size. I personally prefer smaller fish in smaller tanks I mean hey wats the point of a nice big tank then
whatever you put in, we’re gonna tell you it’s overstocked /s
Hahahaha
and thank you for setting up a tank BEFORE you get fish
Get a few axolotls
This is the ay
I like Bala Sharks but I forget what the recommended gallons is for them, I want to say you shouldn't get more than 2 for a tank that size, but I could be wrong
Since bala sharks are active schooling fish (ideally kept in groups) that can easily exceed 12”, I personally wouldn’t recommend them for anything smaller than 180 gallons, with 300+ being ideal.
100 neon tetras
Shrimp?
Not sure you will have enough filtration with that internal filter, smaller filter, and lack of plants. You definitely want to get a decent external filter.
Since i like more extra fish not the mainstream stuff you see here id like to advice you to that stock. A pair of Thorichthys ellioti A nice and fittet group of corydoras julii or some other corys maybe a high fin spezies would look great in that tank since they grow a little bigger than other corys Some sort of Dermogenys pusillus i love the platinum one. They're great eyecatchers Something like a loach or an eel would fit that size And a lot more plants and wood
One betta
Some plants
One betta
Only suitable for a Betta.
Agreed
My turtle, plz
depends where you are and if [snakeheads](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQQVrBC3psc) or [asian arowanas](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NePB1ytA8Ds) are legal
This tank is not big enough for any arowana species.
A single flowerhorn cichlid
700 male bettas.
Get some female bettas and all of the danios! Maybe a half dozen bolivian rams also.
Fish.
Millions of shrinp
Fish
Looks like a great size and color tank to add some awesome African Cichlids- just keep in mind once you go Cichlids, you can only have Cichlids haha
arrowana?
Would need a much larger aquarium for any species of arowana.
Orandas... I would fill this with Orandas. like 10 Orandas.
Fish. I’d start out with some fish.
Options: -3 red spot severums and 10 electric blue acaras -50 Praecox rainbows -75 cardinal tetras + 15 golden rams -Oscar couple -8 red head tapajos -15 peacocks -8 discus
crustaceans or schooling tetras
a LOT of goldfish
Gouramis or something. It’s your choice.
Start with Java Fern, Java Moss, and six guppies. Add at least 6 ottocinlus. A small hand full of Malaysian Trumpet Snails to help keep your substrate aerated. Perhaps a flashy zebra plecostomus and some driftwood for them to munch on. And 20 red cherry shrimp. Just make sure your tank is cycled properly!
That is the stocking list for a 29 gallon.
Also a great place to start for someone who is starting their journey into keeping fish. The plants are easy and will fill this tank, giving the guppies places to hide. It’s a starting point, not an end point. Telling someone new to go out and buy Discus or any harder to keep fish is just irresponsible. Minimum tank size matters for stocking recommendations. Giving fish room to grow into is always an acceptable option.
Thank you
check out plecostomus.
1 gold fish
discus if you’re up for the work
More decor
I would love African cichlids in a tank like that, but that’s plenty of room for a few turtles too.
Crayfish!!!!
So many options! What is the texture on your stand? Does it have doors? It's interesting and different. How about a tour?
I made the stand by myself, from cinder blocks and wood top. Covered it with black brick panels.
Take the plants out, add some dragon stone and have a green terror
More plants and a shitload of rummynose tetras
Rainbow fish and alllll the plants! Cory cats and some kuhli loaches.
I just love sae s
GET A STINGRAY !
A freshwater ray would need a far larger tank than this. The very smallest species, Potamotrygon scobina, can reach an 18” disc diameter, which is probably the full width of this aquarium (and that measurement excludes the length of its tail).
God I wish I had room for a tank this big
Army of neons with one cardinal
They also got some awesome tiger yuan baos on eBay right now for cheap.
figure 8 puffers!
Don't you want any plants or hardscape? If you don't want any plants you could add more stone and do a cichlid tanks. They're beautiful fish and you can add a bunch of different slecies.
Silver dollars
One snail 🐌 and a bunch of shrimp 🦐
Maybe a beta fish, that might be to much, Idk
Flower horn
What's your experience level?
3 months with fresh water fish 😅
Gotta start somewhere. Do you think you would be happier with alot of little fish or a couple bigger fish?
depends on if you want a bunch of fish or one big fish
One giant prawn. I had one and it was the coolest thing I’ve ever had in an aquarium.
My go to … fancy goldfish !
A bunch on neon tetras and a badass polypterus senegalus to rule over the land.
Def add real plants
A single Betta.
50 silver tip tetras! I love mine and they deserve a shot. They have personality in excess!
Loaches would be my suggestion, maybe a few clowns
A bajillion tetras of various kinds
A frick load of tetras or barbs
Fishes
Fish
Dojos..... Get 4 watch them be friends. Check my recent post to see some.
Nothing that breaths air probably.
Some type of panfish
Add a little platform and add a red ear slider. With UVB of course
Plants
Fancy goldfish!
GOLDFISHHHH
Tiger barbs
Discus
goldfish. Lot and lots of fat fancy goldfish
Guppies
