Re-doing 29 gallon

[Jayrod7]

alright so i am deciding to redo my 29 gallon, i already redid my 5 gallon and my new 2 gallon is cycling. i currently have about 5 guppies and 2 platies in my 29. im going to move the guppies and platies to my 5 gallon. in my 5 gallon i have some white wisteria, and some floating cabomba. in my 2 gallon i have a small bunch of anachris and some more floating cabomba. in my 29 gallon right now is a sword plant, not sure what it is cause i got it in clearance, 2 bunches of anachris, cabomba(planted, a bacopa plant, and tons of floating cabomba.

am i able to stock my 29 with these fish, 3 angel fish, 10 neon/glow-lite tetras, 5-6 barbs (cherry or tiger), a pleco, and a few corys and maybe some more tetras, not sure whats at the store.

I would only put 2 angels max in a 29g. They may be aggressive if they start to breed or if they aren't a pair, they could fight, so it may be safer to only get 1. I'd only put in 2 schools of fish with one angel. And get more than a few cories...they are shoaling, so would appreciate 6 or more.

If you go with 2 angels, then only have 1 schools of maybe 10, plus the cories, barbs, and plecos. Even then it may be a bit overstocked.

I think the 5g will be overstocked with the guppies and platies. A 10g would be better.

alright so i went to petland today and they had some pretty cool fish on sale. heres what i got

5 scisor light tail tetras (not sure if thats their real name)
5 head and tail light tetras (pretty cool fish)
3 flagfish (1male 2 female)(extremely awesome fish) iv never seen these before but i had heard about them, while i was waiting to be helped i fliped through one of their books and found info on them. pretty cool fish, they are schooling with my platys.

all the tetras are schooling together , and the flagfish and the platys are schooling too, it looks pretty cool =)

Be careful with Angelfish. I had a pair (1 male & 1 female) and once they began to lay eggs, they started killing off their tank mates.

i decided im not going to get any semi-aggresive fish, im gonna get all non agressive just for safety. the flagfish are pretty cool fish, the male is colorfull, i had to search for about 20mins looking for information on them, not much out there.

does anyone have info on flagfish they would like to share?

Yeah, that seems like a god decision to me, keep the agressive species out of there to begin with.

they are getting along quite nicely, its a nice looking tank, i added some more plants to it, is there a reason why all the fish swim in the center of the tank 99% of the time and dont swim anywere else? the flag fish swimm along the back of the tank at the bottom....
