my 5g tank has completed its fishless cycle.i have 1 oto,3 cherry barbs and 2 gold barbs.all doing well, i I have now got myself a 20g tank which was emptied last week ,can i transfer all the contents( filter etc ) of my 5g tank into it and top up with declore water at the same temp.and then maybe add 6 neons.will they be ok with the new water.

Are you adding all those fish to the 20 gal. along with the equipment? The barbs might stress the neons too much.

the 6 fish that i got now at same time with filter and water etc, maybe 6 neons at a later stage 2 weeks or any other compatible fish to bring colour to the tank.any other fish suggestion will be appreciated
