Fish Suggestion for 20 Gallon Planted Tank
Currently I have a small Yo Yo Loach and Honk Kong Loach in my 20
Gallon tank and later this week I plan on getting a few Corys. How many Corys can I get considering I would like to add some mid level swimming fish later this month? What other peaceful fish would you guys recommend that will not nip at the plants. Ph. 7.4 temp: 78 f Various plants - Swords, Java Ferns, Mondo Grass Driftwood |

... Currently I have a small Yo Yo Loach and Honk Kong Loach in my 20 Gallon tank and later this week I plan on getting a few Corys. How many Corys can I get considering I would like to add some mid level swimming fish later this month? What other peaceful fish would you guys recommend that will not nip at the plants. Ph. 7.4 temp: 78 f Various plants - Swords, Java Ferns, Mondo Grass Driftwood I have a 20G long with two Yo Yo loaches, 3 Cory paleatus (speckled Cory), assorted Otos (2-4 - hard to keep count) and 5-6 Neon Tetras along with a lot of plants (like yours) and driftwood and caves (and a PVC "tunnel" for the loaches). I would think any other small schooling fish like Neon Tetras would work to add mid-level interest and be present when the other fish are hiding. None of mine seem to bother my plants, other than the YoYos that persistently dig up a Crypt I've planted a dozen times at least. Usual recommendation for Corys is 1 per 5 gallons. I try for a minimum of 3 per tank, and as many more as I can manage. Kind of depends on the Cory since they range in size a bit at maturity. Gail |
