Good plan For New 55 gallon?

[Benskoln]

Hey there,

I am stocking a new recently cycled 55 gallon running at about 76 degrees. Started today with six sunset platys (all female).
How does this sound as tank mates for them:


Diamond head neon tetra
Pearl gourami
Black bend Cory catfish
Leopard or platinum panda Angelfish


My plan is to introduce one new breed every week or so assuming the water continues to test well. Also planning on weekly 10% water changes.

First time doing this so any input would be very welcome!

Thanks,
Ben

Live plants help keep your water clean. I'd do bigger water changes, 30-50%.

I tried an angelfish with honey gouramis. It went well for a few months till the angel killed a couple gouramis and I rehomed the angelfish.

Angels and gourami in the same tank can go wrong without warning. I suggest you go with one or the other and then you can keep more of one species.
I suggest 6 pearl gourami if you want neons, I just think that neons are too small and fragile to be in an angle tank. But it you want to try it, get the neons before the angels.
