I plan to get a 25 gallon planted community tank. Here is what I plan to add
10 Panda corys (I rescued them :3)
5 Julii corys
5 amano shrimp
Electric blue ram (male)
3 bumblebee gobys (yes, I know they do better in brackish water...But I have kept them long term in freshwater too with little problems)
1 Stiphodon Goby (Or neon blue goby)
1 bushynose pleco (growout, will move to a larger tank once he reaches full size)


I plan to use an Eheim 2211 canister filter along with an aquaclear 30. I need suggestions on lighting and plants please.

I plan on doing 2 20% water changes a week for this tank. What are you thoughts or suggestions?

Hello,
Stocking a bit heavy in my opinion. Rams are pretty sensitive to water conditions, I have found that keeping in lightly stocked tanks is best.
Sounds like a lot of cories to me for a 25 gallon. Maybe leave the julii out since you have the 10 pandas? And get 6 small tetras or rasboras, etc. of your choosing?
and the bristlenose will create a ton of poop. would probably replace with a couple ottocinclus.
Those would be my suggestions. sounds like will be a nice tank.
