Thank you guys for all the tips I really appreciate it. I will be putting everything together next week. I have to get some pool filter sand, and hopefully i have enough rocks.

Just curious what size tank are you setting up. I didnt see a size posted anywhere. In the op !

Its a 55 gallon tank. Its shallow but it will work. Its 62 inches long and 12 inches wide 12 tall. How I know it will work is because I successfully had 20 tropheus in there. After having them for 2 years I gave them to my dad. He says they are doing great. I think it mainly worked because I had so much rocks in there and and they had plenty of space to swim.

Thats a Nice footprint. sorry for the late reply i was out of town. You will not save all of the fry in a mixed species tank. However with a lot of cover you will definitely grow some up. Just be real carefully i have seen Brichardi parents chase full grown fronts(multiple) into a corner they are ferocious parents, the lelupi can also do the same, having multiple areas in the tank specific to each species will help/ Eg. cave for lelupi separated with large areas of sand with multiple shells for the multis and a separate area of rock pile for the brichardi. The footprint will definitely help you out. and if you get it done it will be a very cool tank
Good Luck
Mike

I know you were looking for Brichardi, I have a ton of Daffodil fry currently. They range from about 2" on down to spit size, most of which are in the 1/2-1" size. Message me if you are interested. I have 3 adults in a 40 breeder aka THE DAFFODIL FACTORY. There are only about 4 or 5 that are 2" as they came from the original breeding in a mixed tank before I moved them to a single species tank.

Leleupi + brichardi + multi

I had leleupi and shellies (can't remember the type) together back when I had trophs. The leleupi started killing the shellies and taking over the shells. Maybe it was because the trophs ruled the rocks though

Thanks for the heads up beefy
