I have various ideas

Could I keep one pair of Rams, some neons and some Cories in a 20g planted fish tank?

I feel I would be pushing it slightly?

What about Kribs (one pair) neons and cories?

failing either of those is there one fish that I could buy 6-8 and just have a "one school tank"



Thank you GFG

I don't know about the kribs but the rams are a good idea. Thats a perfect stocking.
I have 2 rams in a ten gallon so ina twenty they will fine.

Hi there,
1 pair of rams, blue or bolivian,
6 neons, and 6 corys in a 20g would be
a good stocking.

I wouldnt do Kribs with cory cats. My sister had
a pair that killed 6 of her 8 pepper corys,
and left 1 of the remaining 2 permanently disabled.
Breeding kribs can be super vicious, mix with other fish
with care.

I recently set up my 20g with 8 Serpae Tetras.

They look awesome and they seem very happy.

I don't know if Rams would be able to live my Serp's
though because they tend to be very skillful at the art
of fin nipping.

Your stocking looks great. Cories are amazing.

Hi GFG

What about 2 bn plecos instead of a school of corys ? (better cleaners and eat algae too)

And getting 3 or 4 rams ? (1m 3 f/m)
