i am using aqadvisor iv got 40% with what i listed and can i add clown loch or not :thanks:
 
maybe add some more rasboras. ever seen german blue rams? your family will probably like those. neon tetras are a nice addition and to add some dulls maybe some Australian rainbows..... they are somewhat colorful but some tend to be on the darker side.... and some kuhli loaches to have some cute little action going on in the bottom of the tank
 
any other fish and what about another type of tetra or barb and what bout clown loch my mom adores them :thanks:
 
and on my bottem clener aldge and estra food my 7 year old sis is helping so a bit of extra food will get in more then likely... pleco or oto or what?
 
I don't know much about otos but I do know that Bristlenose Ancistrus Plecos don't get super big. I have two at about four inches in my 55g African cichlid tank.
