Hi everybody, I plan on putting fish in my 20 gallon tank shortly after christmas. I plan on having:
7 orange von rio flame tetras
7 glowlight tetras
5 pygmy cory catfish
1 dwarf or honey dwarf gourami
This seems like too much for me, but according to a website called AqAdvice.com, this is only 80% of my tank capacity. This doesn't make any sense to me, so I was wondering if that would work?
Also, do I need a lid on a fish tank? (I don't think any of my fish jump out, like hatchetfish do!)
Would a Cascade power filter 150 be good enough for my tank?
And what kind of heater should I have? (I have a heater from my old 10 gallon set, but I doubt that will be sufficient.
Just for the record, I could have sworn I already posted this (maybe under a different thread) so if I posted this twice, I am not crazy, just kinda stupid sometimes!
