Stocking Ideas?

Hey! So I've been thinking about how I'm going to stock my tank once I let it sit for a day or two from using used filter media. So far all that's in it is 1 German Blue Ram, 3 Albino Cory, 1 Black Kuhli Loach, 6 Ghost Shrimp, 1 Banjo Catgish, and a Dwarf Crayfish. Everything is getting a long great! But I'm looking for some ideas for dither fish and a larger centerpiece fish. Also an oddball if possible. Right now I'm thinking about getting 3 more corys, either 3 more albino or another kind. For the Dither fish I'm thinking either Giant Dainos, maybe Platys? or perhaps rainbows?. As for the oddball and larger centerpiece fish I have no clue. I'm not really a fan of angels so really any input would be great! Thanks!

Forgot to mention its a 55 gallon constant Ph of 7.4-7.6 I'm getting a second filter. The filter now is a whispered 60

Angel fish would be a good fit.

A nice group of Bosemani Rainbows would look sweet in there!

Columbian tetras might look good too. They are beautiful and in a group of 6 school very well. I have rainbows also, they are also beautiful.

Well today I picked up some Long Fin Zebra Daino ! I needed some dither fish before anything else. I think I'm going to pick up maybe 2 more and I'm thinking about Platys? As for the center piece fish, I'm starting to lighten up to the thought of angels. But if I get one I want it too me a really nice looking one, any suggestions?

Yes Talk with Whisper. I am positive she can help you.Plus she has some for SELL!!!!!

With Platys ? I'm not sure what you mean. But as of right now here is my stock for my 55 gallon.

1 German Blue Ram
3 Albino Cory
6 Longfinned Zebra Danio
1 Banjo Catfish
1 Black Kuhli Loach
6 Ghost Shrimp
1 Mexican Orange Dwarf Crayfish

The Danio are by far the most active in the tank. They are constantly swimming or chasing each other! Quite the characters.

Also I've been reading a lot about Asian Tiger Crayfish. From what I've read, (ALOT) I've gotten mixed reviews about how they're the most peaceful full sized crayfish or they're killers. I'm not sure what to believe, it's kind of hard to imagine a "peaceful crayfish" besides the dwarfs. Anyone have any experience with them?

Hey guys I'm preparing to get a 55 gal and I wanted to know what y'all thought about this grouping of fish. It's been awhile since I had tropicals since I've been keeping goldfish for so long and I don't want to over crowd the tank with fishies! Anyways here is the list, any recommendations are accepted gladly :)

1-Loricaria cat
1-Black Kuhlii Loach
1-Indian Dwarf Puffer
2-Peacock Gudgeon
3-Zebra Danio
2-Sterba's Cory cat
4-Red Fire Guppy
and some snails not sure what kind would be good...

Might want to be careful with the puffer...they are a bit aggressive and may destroy the guppy fins...being a bigger tank you might be ok though, hard to say

Thanks strawman, I figured the puffer would be a bit territorial so I was gonna keep an eye on him if I do get him. Everything else sounds fine though yeah? Not too crowded? I'm so used to 10gal of water/ goldfish haha

Nah you look like you have plenty of room in that tank. I have a 55 gallon at my house. In it I have:

3 pearl gouramis
1 Opaline Gourami
10 rainbows
10 black skirts
6 columbian tetras
5 hy511 tetras
1 redtail shark
3 cory's

Well good. Glad to know I've got some space in there! One of my friends said the the loaches and Cory cats needed to be in a school otherwise they wouldn't be happy so now knowing the tank has space I'll add a couple more of them!

Great idea!!
