Trying to decide on a school.....

Greenmagick · 12-09-2012, 03:47 AM

Well, a small school anyways.

I have a 20g that was mostly empty except for cherry shrimp for quite awhile. I am working on getting it back in shape. Right now it has three cories and three sparkling gouramies (which that number may change depending on how it goes). Would like to add a grouping of small fish as well to finish it off. I had neons when I did this combo before and they were fine but, eh, I dont know, would like something different.

What would you add?

I would likely add something like Brevibora dorsiocellata, they are fantastic schoolers and their lampeye would complement the color of the sparkling gourami.

I will have to look into those...thanks!

Oh, and here is a pic of the tank several years ago when I first set it up. It is mostly the same, with the stems in the back having grown in a lot and some of the planting changed, but the general shape is the same (nothing special at all, but its LOW maintenance and I enjoy it

)
