Well my stocking has changed some because of a few losses and I want to up my numbers again. Tanks fine though, been checking stats for past month and everything seems perfect. My current stocking is:

3 Molly (1 Molly Fry in breeding net as well)
5 Oto
3 Bloodfin Tetra
8 Coolie Loach
2 BN Pleco
1 Keyhole Cichild
1 Opaline Gourami
2 Platy

I am mostly debating if I should up my bloodfin again or not. I kinda want a different tetra but at the same time the 3 that are left seem to chase each other rather often. I finally found a good fish store that had a VERY large selection of fish so I am not really limited in what I can add anymore. I also may be moving some of my stock to a 20 buuut have just been to lazy to cycle it. My filtration is a Fluval U3, Eheim Classic 2215 and a Sponge Filter (Planning to use to seed my 20 gallon, been running in my 30 for 2-3 months now). Tank itself has also been running for half a year now but has been growing from a 10 gallon started a year ago so its mature.

Suggestions?
 
If you are going to move some fish and are looking for a shoal for current tank, if you like Tetras why don't you check out Lemon Tetras :good:
 
Well not to sure about moving stock still, its an option but I do plan to move in 2-3 months as well. The 20 gallon is set up and running (Currently has Fluval 2+ inside) but I haven't proceeded to add ammonia yet and I tend to neglect to check it often. Also last attempt lost me a DP so been iffy on using it for that reason too. Lemon tetra dont seem to be what I am looking for. The main tetras I like are Rio Flame or Black neon.

I was hoping to add some form of Chichlid but nothing I can add really work for my size tank or with my current stocking (If I got another keyhole there runs a chance of aggression). I do have the option of giving some of my stock to a LFS but the Opaline and Molly are my girlfriends. Gold Rams would be awsome but sadly my tank condition doesnt suite them due to my current stocking. Perhaps Sparking Gourami?
