not sure exactly if its 20 gallons. but its 12" wide. and about 12" tall. Not sure on the length.

Its got azoo double black water, and a buncha reddevil free swimmers. but apparently i didnt take out one of my smaller convicts and it destroyed the fry. Sooo, now that i have no more fry I have a tank empty.

its got some driftwood, nice plants on the top and side of the tank, than a side with a buncha pleco caves ( some broken so its pretty cool looking ).

Cant decide on what I want to put in there for the time being :(

any ideas?
 
do you want to grow some thing out in there?
if not why not just do apistogrammas and corys

ive seen you been doing some breeding, you could try for african shellies if you felt like rearranging the tank

eghh, no more breeding for me. I already have a good 12 pairs of fish breeding, I'm just stocking my smaller 10-20 gallon tanks up ( i have 24 of them ) than i will sell all the breeding pairs off.

I could grow some fish out in there, depending on what it is.

The tanks water stays at a constant 87*, and is more than over filtered.

just cant really decide on what to go in there.
 
if its a 20 gallon long then it must be 30x12x12 i would say that you should put ACF's or some cons or maybe some barbs, or some dwarf cichlids. I dont know whatever you like?

was thinking about putting a couple neons in there, along with some guppies. but thats to non monster.
 
either a mini monster tank (puffers, exodons) or an awesome mini planted tank, complete with community fish, shrimp, crayfish, etc.

Unfortunately I have no patience for planted tanks
 
I dont know what you have already put what about some angles or a bunch of tetras. Maybe get some small clown loaches for the bottom you could grow out. You could even make it a planted tank. Planted tanks with some light driftwood and some schooling fish are pretty sweet.
 
I agree with onion1... go with something less seen, less common. Then it would still fit in with the MFK spirit.

What about some exotic killies or exotic rasboras (check into micro-rasboras... those aren't common in socal anyways).
