Bow front Tank Ideas

[InTheBox]

Hi! I have a 36 gallon tank, I now have the necessary equipment needed to start the tank, but I am struggling with ideas. My current Idea for the tank, as far as aquascaping, is something like the picture I attached.

For the fish I was thinking about getting either panda or sterbai corydora, honey gourami, and cardinal tetras. My tank shape is a bow, so how much of each fish do you all think I can get. Also, I do not know what the plants are called in that photo. Thanks!

I would do a school of 8 corys, 2-3 gourami, and a big school of tetras. Maybe 12? Depending on your filter you could up the numbers, but I tend to understock. I am not a plant expert but my guess is java ferns.

I think that's a beautiful example to work off of...clean, simple, and a nice combo of hardscape and plants. In my 29g I have dwarf hasbrosus and false Julii corys, neon tetras and a neon blue dwarf gourami...so kind of a similar vibe...and I LOVE them together! I might do 6-8 corydora (I think those are the bigger varieties?), a school of 12-20 cardinals, and one honey. Make sure to post pictures of your progress!

Oh, and I believe they're java ferns (maybe the narrow leaf variety?).

Ok awesome! I have a aqua-clear for about a 55 gallon tank, so I think that would be a great idea.
