A massive thread hijacking!! Borscht. A cold beet soup generously doppled with sour cream and a boiled potato. Being that my grandmother was born in Russia this was a staple for me as a kid. And, it doesn't taste at all like plain beets. Quite delicious actually.
Back to the thread.... A good way to stock a new tank is to take a trip to the lfs for two reasons. 1. You'll have a good idea of price and availability. 2. Something is sure to strike your fancy. Don't buy any fish yet though!!!
After you've seen a few fish that you'd like to keep, come back to the Getting started forum and start a discussion. You'll learn all about the proper care and compatibility with other species.

The last time I went to Big Al's, there was one fish that really got my attention. I made a post about it quite a while ago, it was about Chocolate Gouramis...very cute fish! But I read that they are quite hard to take care of..
I forgot to mention when I first made this post, that the people who had this tank kept about 10 guppies and a pleco. They mentioned that they cleaned the tank about once every 2 months, and one day they realized the pleco just disappeared.. So I guess there is a reason I should REALLY clean the tank well...who knows whats in that gravel.. :|
Thanks again everyone

1 (male) or 3 (1 male, 2 female) dwarf gourami(s), 6-7 of neons, and 4-5 cories would make a pretty cool tank.

I have an all glass 26 gallon that I tried to sell at my garage sale about a month ago for 10 bucks... Just the tank and the glass top. It's got a couple chips in the corners, but doesn't leak... No one even looked in its direction... I have to get rid of it so that I can convince the little woman about a new 120 gallon bow front. Ah well....

Just drop it off outside your LFS and tell your wife you "took care of it."

Freecycle it....somebody will come by and pick it up...probably within hours.
