So the tank is finally up and running, moved the fish that were starting to freeze in the garage to the 60 BUT unfortunately lost quite afew, multiple problemos had to over come.. done si fine now with a 2215 ehiem running, eheiem heater and air stone device

Now The current stock is:

- About 80 neons mixed with green neons
- 4 Flame Back bleeding hearts
- 5 H. melanostichos
- 2 CW45 Corydoras
- 3 Vampier shrimp (Mite sell)
- 2 Male wild Agassizii Blue Apistos (will sell one male)

what I wanna add:
- 12 corel reds Var II
- 2 young Altums or wild discus
- 15 or so Eques or Adolfoi Corydoras
- 9 Lyertail or spade tails Checkerboards
- Mite add 3 or 4 Flame backs to the pack
- I was thinking maybe 3 Brachychalcinus orbicularis Cause I really miss my neon green SDs
- and maybe 6 marble hatchets for top water


probably gonna cut the stocking idea down quite abit, but Iam not use to such a small tank so any stocking Ideas are appreciated, also Iam a pretty ethical guy usually, so I won’t purposely want to keep fish that guaranteed cant thrive in such sized aquarium. Also my keyboard is acting up so like try and ignore how bad everything is. Formatted?

Interesting tank, can you post a picture of the whole thing? Looks like a half-orb shape? What are dimensions?

I know they are small but 80 neons is a lot, if you truly have in 80 there with those other fish, I would say you areprobably already stocked. If that number was cut in half, I could see maybe adding the other fish.
