So I am setting up another tanks after yrs of being away from the hobby.
I have a 60 gallon 48x13x24, I got off a guy moving for 50 bucks with a stand. I have a beamsworks led off amazon, bought for me, that’s 10k.
I am trying to go very low tech this time. I have 2 angels, 12 neons, 4 peppered corys, and a 1.5” clown pleco.
I have i tiny crypt wentii brown, anunbius nana, anubius nana petite, a rosette sword, java fern windolov, and three amazon swords. The rosette sword is tiny and the amazons haven’t converted to submerged growth yet. I know the swords will take over eventually and I’ll have to get rid of two, I thought I ordered one and got three in a bundle.
I have macro micro dry ferts from aquarium fertilizer.com, and flourish root tabs. If I can get away with no excel or co2 I’m gonna try.
My question is what kind of other fish should I add, I honestly thought about four more peppered corys and about 20 more neons and maybe just letting that be it. I will slowly add more plants as I can buy them, and my nutrients get higher. No ammonia, or nitrites, and my nitrates are around 5.
I just didn’t know if anyone knew of any cool fish I could add to bring more life or color into the tank. I’ve been away so long I feel lost getting back into the hobby.
