    20 gallon planted fish

    I have a 20 gallon (long) planted tank with 8 serpae tetra and 3 otos. I was wanting to add a cockatoo cichlid but the only website I found sells them as a pair. As far as tank size and stocking goes, would this be ok? Thanks!

    Stocking a 20g planted

    Currently I have 10 Serpae Tetras and 2 Otos in a SA themed biotope. Could I add another Oto or 2, another school of Tetras, and a GBR without it being overstocked?
