15 U.s Gallon Ideas

[fishkeeper35]

i currently have 6 plants and 3 decorations which one of them is an airstone decoration

i have everything that i need for it to run ( heater, filter etc.) and it has already cycled
substrate is smooth gravel

i currently have

7 zebra danios(all named bob)
1 mystery snail (Waldo)

i plan on having..

7 zebra danios
2 mystery snails(not going to try and breed)
something else



can anyone suggest anything that would be good and compatible with these?

i want either a school of a bottom dweller fish or another school of some type of barbs or tetras

If you were to get barbs I'd go for cherry barbs, stay pretty small and very bright.

Or tetras, I'd go for Cardinals.

If you were to get bottom dwellers I'd go for Sterbai Cories.

Everybody has cories, if you want to be different, get some loaches but be careful on which you pick - clown loaches for example get VERY big and will out-grow your tank..

Maybe a pack of Kuhli loaches?? they're awesome.

Sterbai corys get to big for a 15 gallon tank. Not to mention Zebra Danios appreciate cooler water while Sterbais don't. I'd go for some Corydoras Habrosus

I disagree...

My albinos were fine and bred loads in my 15 gallon when I had it.

I went looking for bottom dwellers and was recommended sucking loaches (CAE) which was an awful recommendation as they terrorised everything else in my tank and I have sinse found out they would have got pretty big. I quickly took them back and got some corys which are lovely and seem to keep to themselves. I have now swapped LFS as well.

 

[fishkeeper35]

i like the corydoras habrosus how many would i be able to fit in there?

also can i add an AFD to it if i still add the cories?

For something a little different a group of 3-4 Upside down catfish or 4-5 Hara jerdoni would work.
