I am trying to make myself wait until school is finished before I tackle stocking the 25 gallon tank I have. I was planning on doing hatchets for the top layer, a mixed tetra school for the middle layer and a small group of corys for bottom feeders and a clown pleco as my algae eater. Well, going to all the lfs stores while pondering what to put in my 6 gal tank (I settled on a school of blue tetras), I once again fell in love w/ the discus. I am nowhere near ready to take the plunge and try a saltwater tank, but the fish are so gorgeous! The discus and gouramis are about the closest you can get to the saltwater colors and stay with saltwater fish. The guy that was helping me at the big lfs used to breed discus and he said I could do one for sure in a tank that size. So, what are everyone's opinions on doing a discus and a couple gourami for my middle layer fish? Will they get along with hatchet fish? It's almost as much fun just window shopping for fish as it is actually setting the tank up...
