Hi, just starting a fish cycle with Danio Zebras this afternoon. To make things quick, I am in Spain and can't get my hands on pure ammonia, so fishless is out of the question. This is my third tank, it is a 90L (22G more or less). I have added filter media from an established tank and there are 12 live plants and java moss in there too alongside 2 large airstones.
I would welcome advise on what to stock it with.
My ideas are: 3-5 Zebra Danios, 4-5 corydora pandas and I can't decide wether to add a lovely shoal of 10-15 Cardinals or something else as main star. I will also be adding a couple of shrimp once water is stable.

These photos are after filling it up, thus it is cloudy, it is clear now and will get some photos on at the weekend:

Hope this works, and give me your ideas on stocking it!
 
I think its gonnalook gorgeous. I agree with the cardinals and the corys.. dunno about the danios though. how about some black neons.
 
Cheers Clareuk, I am adding Danios as cycling fish because they are hardy, but I also actually really like them. The external filter kicks up a nice current and danios love playing in them!
Would the danios and the cardinals get in each others face?
 
I have danios and cardinals together, 15 cardinals and did have 15 zebra danios 2 years ago, now I have 3.. I did notice as the group died off they were so much happier in a larger group as most shoaling fish are.
They are fine together, I also have black neons and there colours when in a large group are gorgeous.
 
NIce tank, Its lloks awsome with the airstone and the plants in it. Hope u stock it with something which will make it look gr8.
 
Thank you very much Paul, I will update with some better digi pics, that tank is still work in progress, but I couldn't wait to get it up!
