Sounds great to me, too! I just got some long finned zebra danios with my pair of rams, so here's hoping they get along! I'd love to see your tank when it's ready!

I'm late to this thread but I thought I would let you know that Glass Cats are very sensitive. I lost all five of mine in one stupid incident. Also they need places to hide. They school together under hiding spots. I wish mine hadn't died.
I just bought glass cats. They're still not fully adjusted after a week. During the day they just hide in the back under my plants. And one hasn't eaten since I got him.
Only thing I can say is that Serpae tend to be a little nippy and may go after some fish. If you want a 100% peaceful tank (by general rule) they might "stir the water". Also, I might have mentioned this before, be careful with pairing B. Rams. They tend to be VERY territorial when they start to mate. They will go after anything that comes near. Otherwise, I like the tank a lot! It's very similar to mine!
I can't wait to get startedSounds fine to me. Can't wait to see it!
Some people have trouble with cardinals and angels because the cardinals are sort of small, so they can get eaten. Other people have no issues.
That stock does sound like it would look very nice in the tank together though. And everybody has a better chance of staying alive since you want to start when the angel is still small.
The rummies shouldn't be an issue. And yeah, getting the angel with the cardinals is a bet... Angels can be a little difficult in a community tank. I have my whole community built around the angels to avoid issues. I love the angels, but it does limit things a little. If you don't want to take the risk, you could get a different centerpiece fish. Like a pearl gourami or a dg. Or, you could just buy the angel small, let it grow with the cardinals and hope for the best.Yeah I have kinda heard mixed info on this... Cardinals are a little bigger than neons and rummys are bigger than cardinals so i'm pretty sure the rummies would be okay... I guess I could not get the cardinals but I would almost rather leave out the angel... lol

The dollar store ones would work the same. Lol
