i think a easy fish would be a synodontis eupterus and a ram with a school of tetras (neon tetras)
 
how about a school of guppies, a leporinus, and 3 otos for algae control. back wall lined with fake plants and hiding places with other small hiding places in each corner.
 
ok ive got it. this will be the setup row of plants along the back and a piece of fake driftwood in the front maybe another ornament. fish: school of neon tetra's, 1 baby green sunfish, and possibly a small pleco or algae eater. what do you think?
 
i think a convict will do just fine with a common pleco for algae with a RENA 45 or 55 that would be killer filtration or just the RENA 40 thats what i have! its goooooood!!

yeah but how big is the sun fish?

ill catch him at hopefully an inch or two. im going to try and catch him in the same creek that i caught my last baby green sunfish last year. now that one is in my friends tank and is about 5 inches or so. if i can catch a baby pumpkinseed sunfish then that would be better bc ive never caught one or seen a big one but i know they are here bc my friend has a 3 incher.
 
just make sure u upgrade when he get close to 5"
 
ok ive heard in another post that a 2 inch green sunfish will eat a 1 inch tetra. would that happen? if so could i just make a sunfish tank with a baby bluegill, baby green sunfish, a baby pumpkinseed sunfish if im lucky enough to catch one, and maybe a 1 inch baby largemouth bass?
 
yes they could eat a 1 inch tetra but a largemouth bass need a 200gal.
