after working at petsmart i realized that its much better to have only a couple of tanks then having alot with the least amount of care. so im going down to only having 4 tanks, and i would like them to be completly different.

so far i have:
125usg-cichlids
55usg-semi-aggressive
20usg-plants with trops

now im debating on what to put in my long 35usg, i was thinking an oddball tank but i cant think of any that would fit.

btw im saving a sw tank for my dorm room next fall
thanks

Get some fish with character and personality. That tank should be a 'happy' tank, with lots of action and fun. You could have a large shoal of cories, some barbs or danios, a pair of dwarf cichlids (like apistos), and a bristlenose. I know that BNs are nocturnal, but they are really cool.

That tanks sounds like it would be a neat setup, at least to me. Go with what you like. Maybe you could stock that tank with just your all-time favorites.

35 long is perfect for gold barbs, WCMMs and a nice huge school of corys. Go with 10 each, maybe 15 or so WCMMS.
