Aquarium Advice FINatic
Hi all!
My tank is cycling, but I am planning ahead for a lovely planted tank. I thought I would get peoples suggestions for the composition
I would like to have one larger fish with other small guys and a set of schoolers. Some top middle and bottom dwellers. Tank will be heavily planted in black gravel with driftwood with a temp between 80-85 depending on the final stock.
So I am thinking of stocking it with the following:
(Many of these fish are either or...)
1 Veiltail Angelfish
1 Opaline Gourami
4 Otocinclus
3 Rainbow Blue Platy
either/ors (4-6):
Blue Tetra
Diamond Tetra
Cloud Fin Mountain
Royal Black Emperor Tetra
and eventually maybe:
1 Panda or Skunk Cory
1 dwarf pleco (bristlenose, clown, or albino bristlenose)
Opinions and other suggestions welcome. I would like to have some more colour, but it seems that all the tetras I am interested in with colour are also a bit nippy. I also want to avoid fish that eat plants.
