Just convinced my mommy to let me have yet another tank And this ones gonna be a 29 Gallon.

This will be in the living room, so I'm thinking of a nice community tank setup.

Only fish I want to put in there is 3 or more platies (kept the fry, big mistake, put them in all tanks and theres still some I have to take to the fish store)

I'll have it planted, and since it will be in the living room I want some colorful, good lookin fish.

Nice one how did u convince your mum. I gonna try to convince mine, to let me get another tank. I thought maybe a school of corys, a school of tetras and a centrepiece fish like a paradise fish of a gourami ( sorry bout spelling )

Or maybe tiger barbs with a plec or something. Just a thought !

For a centerpiece, maybe try a medium sized, non-aggressive cichled.

Rainbow Cichled

You also have rams and angels. Gouramis are a good choice. A nice school of rainbows are lovely too.

I don't think they kill a community, more so put it together, they're something that's all around the tank and not schooling, makes it look more community.

I'm trying to stay away from the general school of this, school of that, centerpiece fish, but it's still an option if I find the right fish.
