My Jack Dempsey recently passed away and I decided to go back to a community tank. I have had community tanks in the past but I was a lot younger and did them haphazardly, basically bought a bunch of fish and let them live together but never had a 55 and want to do this one right. Having the JD taught me a lot about fishkeeping.
OK, so I know I want an Angel as my centerpiece fish. Right now, I have 6 pepper corys for the bottom and a pleco. I'm open to ideas. I'm looking for a lot of color and a couple of schools maybe. I also wouldn't mind one or two other sidepieces fish, so to speak, was thinking a gourami maybe, not sure? I have had a gourami and an angel before but not sure if that is technically a good mix or not. I would like bottom, mid, and top fish.
So, anyone have any ideas/suggestions?
