Hello all! Newbie here...
So I've got a 38 gallon tank set up and i have put in 3 fish just to make sure my cycle was a success (as recommended to me at my LPS). I do plan on adding more fish within a week or two. I was wondering if my ideas for stocking will work or not, if not where should I cut back?
so as of today I have:
- 2 Cherry Barbs
- 1 Sunburst Platy
I want to eventually add:
- 10 neon tetras
- 6-10 shrimp
- 1 catfish/ cleaning fish of some sort ( I know plecos will get too big so they aren't being considered..plus the boyfriend hates the way they look for some reason)
- 2 FEMALE bettas ? (hopefully I can do this) AND/OR One angelfish
-i will also be adding plants, a bubbler, and one more hiding cave or a few small ones ( currently have in a tiki hut decoration/ hiding spot and the Barbs LOVE IT)
please let me know if this will be overstocking and again if it is please suggest what I should remove. OR, if you have any other ideas I'd love to hear them. I appreciate you all so much! Thanks!
