20g stock ideas

[Mrs.Smellslikefish]

hi my husband recently gave me a 20g tank 2 play with and im looking for some unique ideas of stocking it please try 2 include snail or 2 in ur suggestions. thans 4 any and all help

Celestial pearl danios, pygmy cories and apple snails.

Zebra danios. Impossible to kill (not literally!!! ) and they never stop darting around. 15 of them with a Gourami/Rainbow shark and snails would work nicely, and once monthly water changes.

For aquascaping, I would recommend anubias. Unbreakable and provide good cover. Add some rocks to the mix, and you could even have baby danios!

simple gravel or sand, hornwort (awesome plant), 4 zebra danios, 3 corycats, 2 curviceps cichlids (small and community ) and a snail or two haha

your husband must be a great guy and incredibly good looking. how about a betta?

I'd go with a small cichlid species, maybe curviceps or rams

ok this one of my fav setups:
3-7 cardinals
3-7 rasbora heteromorphus
3-5 cories
1-3 Apistogramma Bitaeniata or Laetacara Curviceps (or any other apisto, ram, or small acara)
1-2 snails.... just for you haha

dwarf puffer and lots of snails!

however i think she wants to keep the snails

 

[umpbump]

wait did you want the snails as pets or as food? if pets nvm dont go with the puffer. i think i misread your post..

if you get trumpet snails however you'll just have a constant food source for the puffer (they reproduce really quick)

anyway welcome to MFK!
