new tank for birthday!!!

[paytertot]

So my parents and my grandparents are pitching in to get me a new tank. I've picked out a 46 gallon bowfront (I already have a 55 and I'd like to go bigger but I don't have the room). It's going to be a planted tank with simple stock. I was thinking:
4 discus
1 BN pleco
8 rummynose tetras or similar tetra
1 or 2 fish that are like the rope fish but smaller, idr what they are but they aren't necessary they're just cool. I would do kuhli loaches but I don't think I could add enough without overstocking. I have 3 rope fish in my other discus tank but I don't have small tetras.
How does that sound? I'm going to do a fishless cycle too btw.

Also, is there a reason why bowfront tanks cost more than regular ones of bigger sizes?

I think it's because they are less common and newer than the basic rectangle design.

Sexy always costs more no matter what you're buying.

I figured. So what about the stock?

Stock looks fine. If you're looking for "cool " google a red arc pencilfish. I was thinking about getting some of those this weekend. Looked at a sergeant major loach too which seemed pretty cool and should work.

With just one or two of them? I really love kuhli loaches but don't wanna overstock. But yea I'll Google those other things.
