I just moved 5 emerald cories & 5 lemon tetras from a 10G to a 20long. I'm gonna add a Paradise fish from my 55 also. I wanted to add something else too , any suggestions would be cool. I know I want to add some type of smaller Pleco, something besides a BN, as I already have one in the 55. Unless you think I should put the BN in the 20 & get something else for the 55. I dunno, just want some ideas.
Sidenote: My 55 contains 1 blue 1 gold Gourami, 1 paradise fish(moving to 20), 4 Bolivian Rams, 3 Dario Loaches, 8 Danios,& 4 cherry Barbs. No repeats please.
20G = 5 emerald cories & 5 lemon tetras
I'll also consider rearraging

By all means marry; if you get a good wife, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.

picked up an adult(I think) RubberNose Pleco, he's bout 5inches & looks madd cool. Hope he & my BN(3inches) don't clash. Don't know If I should put one of these guys in the 20 or leave them both in the 55. BTW any suggestions are still appreciated.

I'd put the rubbernose in the 20 and leave the bristlenose (maybe even find a mate) in the 55. I'm not sure rubbernose's are quite as proficient at eating algae so a 20 would be much less area for him to keep clean for you.

bump, Thanx for the suggest, but aren't there anymore? Once again 20long has 5 emerald cory cats & 5 lemon tetras. My prob is that they are similar color & I need something that would fit & add color @ the same time. I've decided to keep the 2 plecos in the 55 & also I'm not moving the paradise fish since he also doesen't add any color. Even if it was just a single centerpiece fish, just not something too common.
