O I picked up my 55 gallon long today, super excited to get this puppy going. I have to clean the tank as that's just common sense but especially since the tank was not properly taken care of. I donated the fish to my lfs as they would receive proper treatment and care there. I'm hoping to run the aqueon 55 filter it came with and a tetra whisper 30 until I can afford another 55.
I'm going with sand instead of gravel in this tank. Now the filter sits really close to the bottom so I'm taking it I should be careful on how much sand I place inside correct? I'm going to throw out the filters they used and start fresh.
Once all done I'm thinking this as a stocking list
1 bristle nose pleco
5 rummynose tetras
5 Cory cats
My 7-8 platys plus maybe a few juvie fry
2 Bolivian rams
Driftwood
Java moss
Duckweed
What other stock could I go with?
