Stocking recommendations

[Cobaltskyy]

Hi there I have a 30g community tank with the following inhabitants:
4 bleeding heart tetras
5 zebra danios
3 white tetras
5 cardinal tetras
4 corries
1 pleco
Im getting ready to rehome the pleco as he is quickly outgrowing my tank. I take really good care of my tanks and do pwc's twice a week (one with gravel vacuuming, one without)
I want blue rams- at least a pair - would they get along with everyone ok?

Side note I have a 10 gal not ready for fish yet...but I might be willing to put some of these guys in there

If your tank is well established, I think a pair of rams would be fine once the pleco is rehomed. I'd also recommend possibly rehoming 2 of the groups of schooling fish and then adding a couple of each type that you decide to keep. Just a thought.

Yes its been running for about 2 1/2 years now. I was thinking about getting rid of the white tetras although they do tend to school with the bht's if I got rid of them I could get more cardinals and bht's and maybe zebras too right??

Just re read your post! U said get rid of 2 of the schooling groups? Really??

Yes. Not getting rid of them won't be a major issue though. I meant going with for instance 2 groups of 8 fish each instead of 4 groups of 4(ish). Even though a lot of fish will seem like they're schooling with other types, the behavior isn't the same as in a larger group of their own kind. Of the fish you listed, the BHs get the largest (bulk wise) so I'd be conservative with their number.

Thanks for the advice
