I have a new 60 gallon freshwater tank. Heavily decorated with plastic plants and hiding spots. It has a penguin 350 filter and two bubblers. It currently has
9 neon tetras
4 black fin tetras
4 black neon tetras
4 white cloud Minnows
3 corydoras catfish
Trying to decide what else
To put in there. I don't want it overpopulated and we like easy sturdy fish.
Someone recommended angelfish but I've also read they might eat the neons
I would love some color like Platys but don't really want babies.
Possibly all male guppies ? Cherry barbs ?
Any suggestions ?
Also do I need a second filter ?
The tank cycled for 10 days with stability before we added the first set of fish and they all did well. It went though a cloudy phase then cleared up and ammonia and nitrite tested 0 so I added the second set ( neons and corydoras ). So now go giving it a week or more before considering any more.
