Stocking for a 36g bow front

[flitabout]

Like the titles states I need recommendations for this tank. I will have 6 female platys in it but what will go well with the platys and be active and colorful. Tank temp will be 75F and heavily planted.

Danios school ? Corys ? What about shrimps ? Kulhi loaches are interesting too.

On AqAdvisor - Intelligent Freshwater Tropical Fish Aquarium Stocking Calculator and Aquarium Tank/Filter Advisor you can find if your planned setup will be compatible. It give also some generals recommandations for your parameters (PH, hardness, temperature, wc schedule, etc.)

You could add 2 Angelfish or a pair of trio of Pearl Gourami's. I think I'd go with the Pearl's. For the bottom level you could do 6 Cory Cats or 3 loaches like Yo-yo's or Angelicus. Or instead of larger loaches you could do a group of Dwarf Chain Loaches or Kuhli Loaches. Then you could do a school or two of smaller fish like Neon, Cardinal, Rummynose, Lemon, or Kerri Tetra's. Threadfin Rainbowfish, Marble Hatchets, Purple or regular Harlequin Rasbora's are all good choices as well.

Instead of pearl gourami's, could also do a trio of dwarf sunset/honey gourami's. Very mild and friendly from my experience.
