Hello everyone, I am new to the hobby and looking for some advice on stocking my 30 gallon tank. Would it work out for me to have 6 cardinal tetras, 6 silver tip tetras, 1 dwarf gourami, 1 angelfish, 1 German blue ram, 3 Cory cats, 1 pleco and 1 dwarf orange crawfish? I was thinking about starting off with just the tetras, Cory cats and the dwarf crawfish ,to allow the crawfish time to grow and not get eaten by the German ram, angel fish or dwarf gourami.
 
12 cardinal tetras, 6 silver tip tetras, 6 Cory cats is a great stocking number.
6 cardinal tetras, 6 silver tip tetras, 1 other "special" fish, 6 cory cats isnt bad either.

I would avoid putting a gourami, angel, and cichlid together in a tank, those 3 fish type can be aggressive and/or nippy.

Corys like to be in groups of 6 or more. You can do 3 but they can stress out a bit more.
