i am getting the tank going finally and want to stock it. the tank dimensions are 30x12x24". i was originally going to go with a few neon drawf rainbows, a school of cardinals, a dwarf guorami, a bushynose pleco, khuli loach. is this a good idea? i cant see any big problems with this so far. let me know what you think, even if it means totally changing the stocking schem so far.

That should be fine, but get 3 kuhli loaches as they like to be in small groups. What kind of filter are you going to use?

i have a lifeguard medium filter in my sump. it is powered by a mag7 pump. the filter is rated for 200g, so i think i have it covered. as for biofiltration, i have dual D30 biowheels, also, powered off of the mag7.
here is a link for a picture of the back of the tank.

As already stated the Khuli Loaches like to stay in schools & i think that the other fish will all be fine.

4 Neon Dwarf Rainbows.
10 Cardinals.
1 Dwarf Gourami.
1 BN.
4 Khuli Loaches.

well, i am cancelling the kuhli loaches because i dont have a lot of caves or substrate for them to hide in. might go with some cories instead.
