Here's the deal. I've had a 75 gal, 55 gallon for goldfish and a 10 gallon for trop planted , and a couple 10 gallon QT's up.
The 75 is a plant tank but with goldfish it's a little interesting.
Now i picked up a 29 gallon after quite a bit of convincing bu most of the little tanks must coem down because of the new tank.

Anyway coming from goldfish i like fish that move, constantly. So what is a schooling smallish fish that moves constantly, doesn't look like it's lost (its neon tetra thing i've seen at lfs ) So i want a fish that schools pretty tightly all in one bunch weaving in and out of plants . I have room for a big school to.
I'm planning on 6-10 panda corys(have 6 already)2-5 juli corys (already have 2) 2 dojo loaches(have them) and a pair of albino bristlenose plecos and POSSIBLY my male betta. and it's 75 gallon tank so i'll have room.
The set up is eco complete, 2 xp3's, hydro 300 watt external, GG CO2 set up with ph controler, 260 watt 6700/9325 and driftwood...
