I have plenty of pictures of my aquariums and I have a digital camera, but my internet service is modum and loads forever when I try posting picts.

atmmachine816

O that stinks.

I finally got the plants! I don't know their names though...

atmmachine816

O i have some too I don't know the names off though they seem to be growing.

I added 5 zebra danios, 1 cory, and 2 platies. I decided not to add the angelfishes.

atmmachine816

Cool, if you check plantgeek you can try and identify the plants or post pics here. Are you going to add more cories?

Stradius011

I'm adding 2 more corys. The reason I'm not adding angelfishes is because I heard too many reports of them eating guppies when they reach full size.

atmmachine816

O mine don't.

Stradius011

Are they adults?

atmmachine816

Yes mated adults, I'v bred guppies with them together.

Stradius011

Oh....I'll put in the guppies first and THEN the angelfishes.

atmmachine816

Let the angels get full grown and have some cover for them, you should be ok, especially if they are fancy tails. 8)

So far I have 2 platies, 1 cory, and 5 zebra danios. I'm planning to add 3 rams, 2 angelfishes, 1 bristle-nose pleco, 5-6 harlquin rasboros, and 2 guppies. Is it possible to add a rainbow shark too? I don't think so but I'm just asking...

Stradius011

I decided against getting redtailed sharks, because now I want 2 dojo loaches. Is that okay?

Sounds like you are way overstocking the tank and one cory cat will not do. You need to have at least 3 as they are fish who need the company of their own kind. I have 2 only because the ones I got as "pygmies" ended up being bigger than that and all died but one and I purchased another to keep him company, but my tank is MUCH smaller.

Stradius011

I had bought 3 corys but 2 of them died. I went to Wal-Mart and bought 2 new corys and a few plants. I'm going to try to NOT overstock it.

atmmachine816

Ya you'l will be WAY overstocked with adding all of those. No rainbow shark, needs a bigger tank. If you don't have more cories add more, you can add the BN and probably decide on one angel or the rams and scratch the harlequins and add the guppies so:
1 angel
3 cories
2 platties
5 zebra danios
1 bn pleco

that would be pushing it unless you have a good filter and do water changes regulary and might need to do larger ones or:
3 rams
3 cories
2 platties
5 zebra danios
1 bn pleco

same with that

I would recommend returning your one cory as the BN will eat food on the bottom along with food you special feed him. No dojo loaches unless you want to loss something else.
