Chaning My Current Cold 15 Gallon To A Trop.

[Liam50]

its a 15gal, buying a heater and new filter from work on saturday.

as you can see the gravel looks awlful as it was given to me and never changed it when i had goldfish. but i'm planning on moving all the fish out into a temporary tank.
the fish are
bronze cory
and two common pleco's.

i was thinking about a heavily planted tank or generally anything.

also if people could suggest some sort of stocking also.

commons grow big mate just to let you know

i have 3 commons 1@13" 1@12" and 1@6" and they are still growing so id say that tank isn't really big enough for them mate

apart from that i like the planted idea i think small planted tanks look good with neons in and corries thing like that but that is my personal preferance at the end of the day its upto you what you stock it with, within reason of caurse

Common Plecs really shouldnt be in that tank, especially 2 of them, also make sure you get more cories they need to be in groups of 4 minimum, but happier at 6.
Heavily planted would look brilliant, with neons maybe. Or how about some dwarf ciclids like cockatoos, they are always good, and would go great with the cories.

REhome the common plecs, and move the corries to another tank, and get a pair of apistogramma and some neon tetras.

sorry probably should of said above but the larger plec will be going into my 100gal and the slightly smaller one will taken to pet store where i work.
