I just picked up a 55 gallon at the Petco $1/gallon sale.
My plan was for a low tech planted tank, with easy plants.
2 gold dust mollies (currently in my daughter's 5 gal tank, but I know they will outgrow it)
6 rainbow fish (would it be OK to mix 3 boesmani and 3 turquoise?)
6 of a schooling tetra - haven't decided which.
5 corys.
1 guarami- possibly a dwarf
Possibly a pair of blue rams in a few months when my parameters are all stable and mature.
Is this overstocked? I can still return the 55 and hold out for a 75, but I already have a stand and filter for a 55, so if I can do this with a 55 I will go ahead with it as planned.
