It took me an hour going thru this topic!. I had to research almost every listing!.. I've really only been back into the hobby for just over a year so my selection will be very mundane.
1. Discus... hands down.. Keeping 7.
2-4.. Arrange any order ya want: Apistogamma, German Blue Rams (6), Angels(100+) w/ONE Kennedy blue.
5. Last comes Altums only because of cost/availability and sensitivity..
