I have a school of 12 WCMM in a 10 gallon and i plan to upgrade that to a 30. I was wondering what could be the stocking? I was thinking of something like
- 16 WCMM
- 4 Paradise fish ( 1 male 3 females )
- 2 dojo loaches
Any suggestions?

Hey 12,
dojos are cold water, im told that they prefer cooler water than most tropicals.
but maybe your right.

just a thought - how warm will the tank be?

if it is over 18 degrees celcius I think Mr. Spice mentioned a bn (bristlenose pleco) that would be nice, but if it goes under I think it would be a little chilly for them

North America has come very interesting coolwater fish that you could keep in that tank, including many minnows, dozens of killis, blind cave tetras, darters, several cichlids, etc. It would be cool if you created a sort of "North American biotope" tank (which nobody ever does), including plants from the continent as well.

About the paradise fish, i had a male and a female together for a short period of time and he was cruel to her. I would be very careful with the male and females.
