Had my water tested at the pet store today and was given the green light to purchase fish. Got 3 swordtails ( 2 female 1 male) and 3 Cory fish (2 female 1 male).
Must say it was funny after the whole settling in procedure, when the time came to let them out, immediately they went to scavenge for the snail eggs and baby snails stuck on glass, the pet store asked me to bring them some of the snails (whichever form....full grown, baby or eggs) since they feed some of their fish the snails, but at the rate my lot are devouring them I doubt I will be able to give the petstore anything.
All in all everyone seems happy in the tank, the male swordtail tends to hide a lot amongst the plants while the females are feeding away...the corys seem to do their whole THOROUGH cleaning procedure but its so cool to watch.
