Hey y'all! Here are some of the stocking ideas I've been thinking of:
Setup 1:
6 Clown Loaches (I heard they grow very slowly, so I think I can keep a small school for a few years), 10 Tiger barbs, and 2 Striped Raphaels (this might be overstocked...)
Setup 2:
1 Dojo Loach (Or smaller eel like a Peacock eel), 5 Pearl Gouramis, 6 or 8 Diamond Tetras (maybe), and 1 Striped Raphael Catfish.
Setup 3:
A mixed species Rainbow fish setup, 6-8 Corys (Emeralds or another smaller species), 1 Striped Raph.
Setup 4:
6-8 Congo Tetras, 1 Ropefish, 1 Striped Raphael Catfish, 1 Four-eyed Anableps (maybe, if I can find one in-person), 1 Pictus Catfish.
Setup 5:
3-6 Silver Dollars, 6-8 Corys, 1 Striped Raphael
Here is my personal ranking of these setups:
1. Setup 1 and Setup 2 are tied
2. Setup 4
3. Setup 3
4. Setup 5
What do y'all think? Changes? More Setup ideas? I was also thinking about combining Setups 1 and 2 together.
