Hey guys,

I have a 20 gallon tank that's been up and running for a long time. The fish that I had in it got moved except for my Raphael Catfish. So my questions is what should I add? I was thinking maybe a pair of Rams. For filtration I have a Penguin Bio-Wheel 200 which is rated for up to a 50 gallon tank and because of all the filtration I only do 10% WC once a week but will do more if necessary. Suggestions please ;)
 
Can't really argue with a pair of rams. I have a 20 I've been wanting to set back up but I have no idea what I want to put in it myself.
 
I know very little about Raphael cats but since they are bottom dwellers and Rams tend to stay lower there could be a real issue in such a small footprint tank. Just something to think about.

Yeah, that's true. 20 gallon high or long?

High. I know i have a small footprint but i think it could work because all my raphael does is lay in one spot all day. Even lazier than my Eclipse cat...
 
I had a raphael before and he only came out of hiding at night for me. Not much fun but they're still a cool fish.
 
I know the next 20 i set up is gonna have either cpd's or Gertrude's rainbow's ( spotted blue eyes)...
I luv rams to though but i already got them. Any of the dwarf cichlids are super cool imo :)
