FAQ
Common questions
How many fish can go in a 75 gallon tank?
A 75 gallon holds an angelfish group over congo tetras, or a severum with a cory group, as the plans above show. Big cichlids and loaches add waste fast, so count by adult size in the stocking calculator.
Can a 75 gallon tank hold an oscar?
Oscars list 75 gallons (284 liters) and grow to 13.8 inches (35 cm). They are marked aggressive, so this community list leaves them out, and the oscar profile lists the tank mates sources agree on.
Can discus live in a 75 gallon community tank?
Discus list 65 gallons (245 liters) and want 79 to 90°F (26 to 32°C), warmer than most community fish. Sterba's cories at 75 to 82°F (24 to 28°C) and cardinal tetras at 73 to 84°F (23 to 29°C) overlap its cool end.
Which plecos fit a 75 gallon tank?
The para and orange seam plecos list 66 gallons (250 liters). The blue phantom pleco grows to 9.8 inches (25 cm) on the same minimum. Common plecos sold as algae eaters, such as the Amazon sailfin catfish, list 100 gallons (380 liters).
