Help recomendations

[walvin]

I currently have a 15 gallon column tank my wife purchased for my birthday. I currently have the tank set up and is cycling getting ready for fish. I was thinking of having the following fish:

2 Angel Fish
2-3 Gourami
2-3 Loach or Cory Catfish
possibly a shrimp or two

I have looked at multiple forums on multiple site and have seen and heard mixed things mostly that I need a longer tank but for now this is what im working with lol any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated !!

Angels need a bigger tank, you could have a group of 6 of one of the smaller corys & a honey gourami & some shrimp

Agree 100%! No way to 2 angels in a 15. Even one is pushing it and not recommended. Would also only do 1 gourami.

are there any other fish recommendations that i can put in to fill top bottom and middle?

 

[walvin]

do you think an Upside Down Catfish would work to fill in the middle?

 

[Lillefishy]

They really need to be kept in groups so no they wouldn't be suitable for your tank.
Endlers tend to hang around the middle to top a lot of the time

How does this sound?

bottom: 4-3 Cory Catfish red shrimp
Middle: 2-3 Upside Down Catfish
Top: 1 Gourami
