So update on this, I'll be picking up a 65L tank on the weekend :nilly: which has a footprint of 61cm (L) and 30cm (D) and is 38cm high. Haven't thought about stocking on this yet as went around the LFS today and there wasn't much selection so will plant it up first. Just wondering if anyone can suggest a good filter for it as my current filter won't be powerful enough, and maybe some lighting for basic planting, nothing too fancy? If anyone feels like it I'd love any stocking suggestions or if anyone knows of any breeders in Dunedin of fish that would be good in this tank I would be really grateful as LFS were a little bare today. Thank you so much for all your help!

Thank you for all your help!

I was thinking of just getting one schooling type as throught it might be too many fish if I had both. Do you think 6-8 of each would be okay in my tank? Thank you for helping!

how many of each would you recommend for each in a school? Thank you for the help

AqAdvisor has indicated a school of Scalet Badis (no more than 7) and an otocinclus vestitus would be okay in the tank, anyone think this is okay? or would ember tetras be better? have had guppies before and wanted to try something different

would they be okay with the small footprint of my tank? given that it is only 38cmx26cmx26cm (LxDxW)? and how many should they be kept in for a happy school? Thank you

Hi Haven't been on here in a while and have just had a few blue mystery snails in my tank for the past few months but thinking I would like a few fish again :f77: I currently have a Blue Planet Classic 20 and it is running on the filter it came with unmodified and has been cycling for months with the snails and previously a few platys. I was thinking of maybe something like a small schooling fish as I'd like to see a bit of movement, I'd also prefer a bit of colour but know my options are pretty limited with a small tank. I am planning to have it planted so will be setting that up first while I am trying to decide on what to put in. Any suggestions welcome, oh I'm in Dunedin if that makes any difference haha. Thanks, Amy
