Upgrading tank size!

[Rnord12]

Hey guys, I'm new to this game but I'm looking to upgrade my 5.5gal tank to a 20-30 gallon tank. I'll be transferring over a couple Panda Cory's but I will definitely buy more of them now that I'll have space. But what should I stock the tank with?! I've been looking at Blue rams and possibly some smaller sized cichlids. I want to find some colorful fish that have personality to them prefferabily! Any suggestions on some cool fish that would work for this tank size?

Thanks!

Rams or Kribs would work, but keep in mind the smaller cichlids tend to be a little skiddish at first. Keep in mind they came from waters with big brutes. Between the corys and either of those cichlids, some tetras, barbs or gouramis will work. I'd get a nice school of 6-10 penguin tetras to add. You could go with larger livebearers like Swordtails or a group of Endlers that would provide live food for the cichlids.


Once you think you got it report or PM me and I'll try to help.
