20 gallon high stocking ideas

[meganlaff]

Hello. I’ve just recently set up a planted 20 gallon high tank and am thinking about what to stock my tank with once it’s fully cycled. I’ve only ever kept large tanks with cichlids, so I wanted something different. I definitely want either neon or cardinal tetras, as well as a small school of panda corydoras. I also love livebearers, so I wanted a few of those.

Here is what I was thinking:
8x neon tetras
6x panda corydoras
2x platy
1x dwarf gourami
1x molly

Please let me know if this would work or not! I am open to suggestions

Should be fine but I would recommend either doing the Pilates or Molly's and not both. Just my opinion though.
