Butters

alright, So i should be getting my 20 gal long soon and I'm just trying to get my stocking planned out ahead of time. Alright, here is my list so far:
6-7 zebra danios/harlequin rasboras/small tetra
5-6 small cories such as pandas
1 BN pleco OR 3-4 otos
Either 1 female betta or 2 male platys

Thats my list so far...If anyone wants to help me tweak it or change it around, that would be greatly appreciated

You will be way overstocked for a 20 gallon tank.
6-zebra danios =12"
5-panda cories =10"
3-otos/1BN Plec =6"
2-platys =4"

You're up to 32" of fish!

Like John said, that would be overstocked. I'd take out the corys or Danios and then you would be stocked.

I would go with the 2 male platies instead of the female bettas. Sometimes they do well in community tanks, and sometimes they don't. When I had one in my community tank, she got so huge and constipated from eating the food for the other fish, that she finally died. After that experience, I wouldn't reccomend that to anyone
