I currently have a 10 gallon tank with a cory, 2 serpae tetra, and an otto
I started small to make sure i was willing to dedicate myself to the hobby and am ready to jump to a larger tank. I was thinking of upgrading to a 30 g tank so I could increase the number of my fish since they are all schoolers.
1) I was looking at the Rena Filstar XP1 filter for up to 45 gallon tanks and a 150 watt Stealth submersible heater.
2) What kind of lighting would everyone recommend. I would like to add add plants for my fish when i upgrade. I've read 1.5 - 2 watts per gallon. Is that still the case with medium to low light plants?
3) Also I would want to stock up this tank and here's what i was thinking
Serpae Tetra - add seven more giving me 9
Bolivian Rams - I was hoping to add 5 ( is this okay? dont know much about these fish)
Cory - add 2 more giving me 3
Otto's - adding 2 more giving me 3
Btw i was going to purchase the filter and heater off bigal's, anyone had goodluck with them?
Thanks for your help
