Aquarium Stocking Questions Use this board for aquarium stocking questions. Do NOT follow the 1 inch per 1 gallon of aquarium water recommendation that you will often hear at the local fish store. Stock your freshwater aquarium lightly and sensibly and if you need help with stocking your tank post your questions on this aquarium stocking board.

Last addition to 30g?

I have a 30g bowfront tank with:
2 angelfish (12 inches)
1 dwarf gourami (3 inches)
1 silver-tipped tetra (2 inches)
5 pristella tetras (10 inches)
= 27 inches

I'm taking back the silver-tipped tetra because it's torn up all the pristellas. That gives me 5 leftover inches. I'd like to get at least one more fish, but I'm not sure which fish would get along with the ones I already have. I was thinking some sort of bottom-feeder would be nice, but I'm open to all suggestions.

Oh, and the tank isn't planted, but it will be as soon as I can find a stronger lightbulb.

i'd go with a clown pleco, 3 or 5 otos, or 3-5 corycats

A dwarf pleco like a clown or BN. Almost the ideal fish for what you want!

Good ideas! My petsmart may not have any clown or BN plecos, but I'll check. If not, I think I'll get a few corys, I've always liked those. Thanks for the suggestions!
