In my 10 gal I have 2 Male Dwarf Gourami's, 2 African Dwarf Frogs and 2 Otocinclus catfish. So far it seems like a good balance. The Dwarf Gourami's(One Powder Blue and one Red Fire) are colourful and are a good centerpiece fish. The Dwarf Frogs are funny to watch as they make their mad...
I feed them sinking brine shrimp pellets daily and blood worms a couple times a week.(this is the only time I actually see them eat - they love the bloodworms) I would get a couple of frogs. At first I only had one but it hid all the time and I hardly ever saw it. Soon as I got a second one...

In my 10g,I have 2 Male Dwarf Gourami's, one is Powder Blue and the Other is a Red. The Red One seems to be aggressive towards the Blue one, chasing it allaround the aquarium. I have 2 plants, a roman arch and fake rock...
Thanks for the advice. I looked into the Otocinclus catfish and read that it is a schooling fish. What would you say would be a better choice? 2 Cory Cats to clean the leftover food from the bottom or 2 Otocinclus Catfish to clean the algae. I'm not sure which is more important.
