Hey there!
I'm asnyds, and I'm new to both forums and aquariums.
I've never maintained an aquarium by myself and I've decided to start one, I'm getting either a 40, or 55 gallon tank in the next few days from my uncle.
I have a lot of ideas for my aquarium and have done good research on fish available in my area.
My community idea right now is as follows -
Von Rio flame tetra - 4
Black phantom tetra - 3
Two-three weeks later I'm going to add in
Either - 2 of the smaller growing pleco OR 2 dwarf Cory catfish.
Also at that time I'm going to add one golden dojo loach for show
Also I plan on themeing the tank to a fantasy type thing in the future. I'm starting it with black gravel and a mix of red and green faux plants, and then two or 3 big decorations I saw at a local store - a nice sized castle, and a large fanged skull. After that I may add 3-4 glo tetra and some neon gravel to highlight in the black gravel. Only doing that if I decide to get the light that makes the glo tetra and neons really pop.
Open to any and all suggestions!
Buying fish is only a few weeks away!
