A Start At A 45g Stocking List

3- 3" Clown Loaches when they get around 6" I will give away
1- Bristelnose Pleco
2- Bannded/Giant Gourami

Can't think of what else I want.

clowns need to be in groups of 4-5 but IMO three would work BUT, i would advise not to get them if you are just having them until 6" as most people will become attached to them and wont get rid of them.

Banded and giant gouramis are 2 different species. I suggest you stick with the banded gourami, as these are much smaller than the giant gourami, and one of the more peaceful gouramis.

I would add a nice shoaling fish to your planned set-up, maybe some congo tetras or rainbow fish. Or simply a large shoal of a nice tetra or rasbora species.

Yes I am talking about Bannded Gourami, But in the USA Market they are called Giant gourami.

Thanks for the Shoaling Idea. Anyone have anyothers.
