Hey guys, i cleaned it out all yesterday and more this morning.

Im not going to use the same gravel, but im going to re-use the plants/rocks in the tank. Im going to go to the LFS today, and pick up some of the same color gravel (white)

I can steal some WCMM's from my 55 gallon tank to cycle this one again, but i dont know what to put in it.

When i had my old YoYo loaches, they seemed pretty fun/cool, so i was thinking of putting some of them in the tank for obttom feeders.

I have no money right now (I spent it all on the last setup of the tank a week ago)

Also, will ghost shrimp (or a colbalt blue lobster) bother bottom feeders, like corys, or YoYo loaches? I want to get one, but im afaraid that they will nip, or acually eat the YoYo loaches when they are resting.

If I were you, I would start off moving the yoyo loach in your other tank. That way, it would be left alone by your 'grumpy' clown loach. Ghost shrimp never bother fish, in fact, they are the ones always being eaten. I wouldn't go for the crawdad, though. It would try to eat your fish.

If you don't have money for new fish, try breeding some of the fish you currently have. What I would do is cycle the tank(either fishless or white clouds). Then make sure there is plenty of thick floating plants and let the white clouds do what they do best. Once you see eggs or babies remove the adult fish have enjoy raising your new fish.

ugh.. my whiteclouds bread in the tank before my 20 long (I switched all of the fish to the 20) There had to be at least 50 in there, and now there are only 4 left (they got eaten)

They are in a breeder tank in my 55 gallon.

My friend is gonna give me a guppy, so I can breed those guys
