20 Gallon Tall Stocking?

[Diamonte]

I'm trying to stock my 20 gallon with some colorful fish this time and I need help?
I know that I'm getting a pair of Ram Cichlids. Can I add more than one pairs of Rams in a 20 gallon? What are some cool fish to keep with a pair of Rams? My tank is planted with plenty of hiding spaces as well

Thanks In Advance

I'd only do one pair of Rams. More is asking for trouble.

What about a school of Corydoras?

And maybe some neon tetras?

Big fan of rummynose myself.
One pair of rams is best IMO.

Definitely one pair of Rams
Personally neon tetras have to have soft water if that is available go for it if not a good school of glow light tetras are super easy and some corycats or something along those lines work great

Green neons, really great color!

Kuhli loaches! They're very fun and more colorful than most corydoras. You could have 5 or 6 and it would be awesome!

I'm told the issue with Rams and Cories is that the Rams will pick a territory on the bottom and the Cories bumble into it again and again and can get beaten up.

If you have a choice, a 20Long has a better footprint for Rams AFAIK.

Kuhli loaches are probably better in that regard as well because they are much better at hiding. Kuhli loaches are experts at staying out of the way.
