I already feel like i have started too many threads on this 20gal long of mine but here it goes!
The tank is a 20 gal long.
96W Lighting (when it arrives)
Fluval 205 Filter
One thing that need's some attention is the fish that this tank will house, I still haven't decided on what to get! I will list below all the fish that i am considering, have considered or have some interest in, please add your comments and suggestions.
Corydoras - Considering 4-5 of any 2 incher's of the same species.
Rummy Nose Tetra - I'm after a shoal of small fish and i like the rummy nose. Maybe 6 of these.
Keyhole Cichlids - I would also like a pair of fish that would be the biggest in the tank, also to keep the shoal in check. I have taken to Keyhole's and like the idea that they can form a strong relationship as a pair.
Bolivian Rams - I have always liked rams, my brother has 3 GBR's and i would like something different, it's one or the other with regards to the Keyhole's.
Paradise Fish - Just considered these really, they look nice and again they would be the larger fish that i would keep.
Bamboo Shrimp - I have read about these quite a bit and also started and read other posts on here about them. I think i will get a pair of these but how will they do in a 20gal long? Also wil the fish leave them alone?
Rainbow Fish - These were an early consideration of mine as i have always found their colour quite striking and it seem's to almost change when it glisten's in the light. Again these would be the 'larger' fish in the tank. I like the look and sound of the threadfin's and neon's.
Please feel free to suggest some fish and perhaps warn me off certain ones, I also would like to keep different fish to the ones in my sig and the fish that my brother keeps which are: GBR's Rainbow Shark, Cherry Barbs, Zebra Loach.
TIA.
