What other fish can go in this tank?

[britnewt]

I have a 20 gal.
Fish:
1 Pleco(he's 5 inches)
1 Glowlite Tetra
1 Bala Shark(Yes I know he needs a bigger tank, He is only 3inch now and about in a month or two He'll be in his tank w/3 other bala's)

So not counting the bala;
What other fish would go well with a pleco and a tetra(I will add about 4 more tetras) also when I get my big tank for my bala's (I'll but 4 bala's and 1 or 2 pleco what fish would go well with these's tanks?

How big of a tank are you getting for the balas? I would suggest moving the plec in with the balas once you get a bigger tank, because the plec is really too small for a 20 gallon too. So that would leave you with 1 glowlite tetra. I would suggest at least 5 more glowlites so they can school, and something for the bottom like cory cats.

I have a great site for you. (Age of Aquariums - Tropical Fish / A Era de Aquarios - Peixes Ornamentais) You can learn allot from this website and it has pictures of every fish you can think of. A Bloodfin Tetra is a hardy fish and funny to watch. They don't get very big and they can live with just about any fish because they are very fast.

yea and balas really need a GIANT tank, well not giant but large, id say a min of 250gal for 4 of them, preferably larger though..

20 gallons is def too small for a Pleco. However, I have Bloodfin Tetras, Head and Tail Light Tetras and Serpae Tetras and they are all really cool fish.
