Going for a community look, group of dwarf cichlids, or make a pair of apistos the center piece of the tank and gather community fish around them. Any suggestions on stocking this tank? im going to put more plants in this tank i just like doing planted aquariums now lol. Thanks in advance for you guys help.

I'm working on setting up a 57 for apisto community and I plan on panda cories, l183 bristle nose pleco, German blue rams, green neon tetras, and 2m 5f of either Apistogramma sp. Tefe (agassizii type) or Apistogramma cacatuoides triple or mega red. Love to see what you do with your tank, I don't see too many apisto setups, maybe I just never was looking for them.
 
That sounds cool I may go with a pair of Double reds, 8 neon tetra, albino or panda cory cats, I already have a bristlenose pleco in there, i may go with some rams, and 2 dwarf gouramis. Keep the suggestions coming.
 
I always wanted to try nannacara anomala.I saw them a few monrhs ago in lfs, but now can't find them

Are you suggesting that i put Neolamprologus brichardi in my 20gallon setup? They would die because the PH in that tank is 6.6 lol, brichardi do better in a rocky landscape, and you atleast need a 29gallon for them by there self. Plus brichardi self populate which means they will breed and there babies will help the next brood, which mean that 20gallon will fill up fast.

Use the babies as feeders. If you need a rocky landscape then get some rocks.
