I am trying to draw up a stocking plan now that I have my 32 Gallon (long) tank set up and planted. I'm getting a little overwhelmed reading about all the fish and would appreciate some help....
I went to the pet store and made a list of the fish I like:
-powder blue/golden dwarf gouramis
-emerald/sunset gouramis
-cockatoo dwaf cichlids
-tetras (columbian, painted, jelly bean,etc)
-suckermouth fish (pleco)
These are the questions I'm lost over:
I know I have limited space in my tank, so what kind of combination would work best? How many fish need to be in a school (tetras)? How many gouramis have to be together? (Male/female?) I love plecos but I know the common one gets huge, is there a better smaller one? Do I need to have a bottomfeeder in my tank? Which fish would be the best to cycle with?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
