Here's a sample list: 6 Corydoras catfish 8 tetras (a species under two and a quarter inches would be best in there, because of size restrictions) 2 rams (German or Bolivian) or Apistogramma cichlids 1 dwarf pleco (such as a bristlenose) And when he gets to Heaven, to Saint Peter he will tell: "One more Marine reporting, Sir! I've served my time in Hell."

BigGee168 Enthusiast Posts: 245 Kudos: 209 Votes: 42 Registered: 18-Jan-2004	hi dude_dude, The angelfishes alone would already be stocked for a 20gal because I had 2 in a 25gal b4 and it was pushing already. Mollies and Swordtails grow to a decent size of 3inches+ each. http://fishprofiles.com/files/profiles/mollies.xml http://fishprofiles.com/files/profiles/swordtails.xml It would be a packed bus when they all reach their potential size Even at their smaller sizes I dought the filter would keep up with the cycling. I would definitly agree with sirbrooks recomendations and it sounds really decent. Gee Last edited by BigGee168 at 12-Feb-2005 22:46 Gee !!I think I just learned somthing new!!

sirbooks Moderator Sociopath Posts: 3875 Kudos: 5164 Votes: 932 Registered: 26-Jul-2004	Yeah, the stocking list you mention should just work. You really can't add any more fish than that, you're pushing it for only twenty gallons. However, all of those fish are compatible, so things should work out if you keep up with your tank maintenance.

divertran Fish Addict Posts: 784 Kudos: 469 Votes: 165 Registered: 14-Nov-2004	A bunch of harlies, a pair of dwarf gouramis and a dwarf pleco. And yes Harlies are harlequin rasboras, sometimes called red rasboras, hardy little guys. mine got big, maybe an inch and a half. a school of eight should do well Last edited by divertran at 14-Feb-2005 10:43
