Stocking

[Boomer2244]

Ive just got my 55g set up about a week ago and so far I have

6- spotted corys
6- serpae tetras
6- male guppys
6- buenos aires tetras
4- mollys

I'm looking to please my wife with a pink or "girly" colored fish as a centerpiece and she didn't like the peacock gudgeons I showed her any suggestions? Any help is appreciated.

Ah, stocking !
For a moment there I was thinking how to keep the seam straight at the back !!
Perhaps some rosy barbs, nice scale detail and quite colourful. I note no sign of a bristlenose catfish, they aren't usually pink, but if the wife can deal with that.... You could get an albino BN catfish (a bit orange/yellow). Also note most/all your stock are mid to top of tank, so perhaps a squadron of cory's would be good. I take it your system has cycled and the fish have been added since. Watch your stock increase amount, don't put too many in at once or your filter might have trouble keeping up with new bio-load.

Hmmm, who slipped those cory's in there when I wasn't reading the whole entry ???
