What kind of "COOL" cat......

[spwd]

The lima will get too big for that tank unless your planning on an upgrade,also most geos get big so you will need an upgrade for them and also the p*****s get pretty big too,and if you get clown loaches then they will be ok for a few years but then they will be needing an upgrade,to me sounds like the best thing to do would be to upgrade first and then you will have more choice as i think you will soon be at capacity.
Id just get some pictus.

thanks all for the advice. I do have plans for upgrading, soon as well.

gotch, may be leaning towards the shovelnose.

The only problem with Limas is that they grow extremely slow. It takes them about 3 years just to get to 14-15", but if you don't mind the growth rate, they are great cats. I have two of them and they are currently 6.5" and 8" (I bought them at the same size, but one has grown quite a bit faster than the other).

what about several clown loaches??

CL's aren't catfish.

Holposternum littorale. Gets about 8"-10" and is active day and night. Probably the most user-friendly catfish in the world.
