Now that my tank is at least close to cycled (/crossfingers), I'm trying to decide on stocking options.
I have my heart sort of set on some Blue Velvet Shrimp, they are crazy gorgeous. So I'm planning to get a couple of those. Unfortunately they become food really easily, so stocking the rest of the tank is turning out to be really challenging.
The only thing I've been able to find so far are some skirt tetras (I'll probably look for the glofish, but I like the black ones too). AqAdvisor says with 2 shrimp and 6-8 tetras I have plenty of room in the plan, but I'm struggling to find anything peaceful enough that still gives a bit of variety.
My KH is 4.5 and rock steady, so livebearers are pretty much out. Anything else I could put in that's super peaceful, to round out the tank?
