Well, I guess I'm going a little crazy, but I got a 20g tank off freecycle today and have decided to start a second tank with sand substrate & real plants (my 36g has all artificial plants and kid-dy decor). Since the 20g one will have sand, I shall add the emerald green catfish here, and am thinking of a rainbow shark instead in the 36g, which will make my stock look like this -
36g
5 x guppy
2 x platy
1 x angel
1 x dwarf gourami
1 x rainbow shark
20g
4 x emerald green cory
1 x betta
5 x harlequin rasbora
1 x nerite snail
1 x african dwarf frog (maybe much later)
Any problems there? I have 2 filters running in the 36g, so should be able to use one of them in the 20g to get a headstart on cycling.
What are easy real plants to start with (ones not needing much expertise on my part to survive)? Any specific lighting needs for plants?
Thanks my friends!
