Do you think that this is a good freshwater fish tank? Two firemouth cichlids, Six tigerBarbs, four fancy goupies, 4 Neon Tratas, 2 plecos, 2 catfishes, and an apple snail. (there in a 65 gallon tank)

you will probably find that the firemouths will get aggresive towards the other(docile)fish in the tank, and depending on the catfish they may also get aggresive

If this is a new tank You might also consider useing some kind of alge-tab. You have alot of fish that feed off the bottom of the tank, ya dont want them to starve.

I hate to tell you, but your guppies and tetras probably won't make it. Firemouth cichlids are fairly aggressive fish and are terrible nippers.

bye bye tetras in a few months, its basically feeder fish for when the cics get bigger, and more territorial move them out!
