I bought a 20 gallon to go along with my 15 gallon. I am only adding one new species (not already in my 15 gallon) to this mix. Can you tell me what you think about these tanks. Here is a list of the fish species I want to have in whatever numbers are best between the 15 and 20 gallon. Neon tetra, black neon tetra, black skirt tetra, cherry barb, gold barb, rosy minnow, otto, platy
Here is what I came up with
15 Gallon (already established and ready to go):
6 neon tetras
3 Cherry barbs (1 male, 2 female)
3 rosy minnows (I've read they can survive up to 85 degrees. My tanks are set at 76)
2 ottos (to help with algae on the rocks)
20 gallon (will add objects and filter from my turtle tanks and 15 gallon to speed cycling):
4 black neons tetras
4 black skirt tetras
3 gold barbs
2 platys
2 otos
Thanks for the help!
