Hey guys. I made a move a couple months ago and I have my 55 almost done. All I need is a background and 4 marble hatchets(the LFS has been getting bad groups so I have to wait).
Here are some pics of the tank and the fish I have.
I have
4 Congo Tetras(newest additions)
2 Angel Fish
2 Bristlenose Plecos
4 Emerald Cories
6 Peppered Cories
1 Clown Loach
3 Yoyo Loaches
1 Rainbow Shark
2 Red Tip Phantom Tetras(not sure if that is the name. Can't find anything about them. The LFS said they were like a 1 time thing)
7 Black Phantom Tetras
7 Black Neon Tetras
7 Neon Tetras
7 Glowlight Tetras
7 Gold Tetras
1 Marble Hatchet

And thats all. Clown loach hides during the day. Now im waiting to set up my 29 that is cycled. Still deciding what to put in it.

Nice variety, I like the way you use the smaller fish and have the centerpiece angelfish. I'd ditch the clown though.

Well the original plan was to get a 220 gallon and get some more clowns but we ended up renting so I had to get a 55 instead.

Just got my 29 up and going. I has been cycled for quite a while but finally decided what I wanted in it. Here are a few pics of it. I have 1 albino rainbow shark, 6 columbian tetra, and 6 tiger barbs(2 green, 2 albino and 2 regular). Not sure if I will add any more fish. I think I am pretty maxed out.
