New fish and plants!

[lizard]

With the money I got from selling that 10-gallon hood, I got new plants and fish for my tank

On Saturday, I got a couple of Java Fern plants. I've been wanting some for awhile. Now I need to get a piece of bogwood/driftwood/some-kind-of-wood for my tank. Both of the fish stores I've been to down here have it priced higher than I want to pay.

Today (25% off fish and plants day at the fish store!), I got another Panda Cory and three baby Neons! The Panda Cory has such nice, long, barbels. Ooohhhh.... My original Panda Cory's barbels are a little short, so I took some of the bigger rocks/sand grains out of the tank today so that he won't wear down his little barbels as much.

I considered getting some Khuli loaches today, but my husband did not like them, so I decided to get some fish he liked and get the Khulis another time - trying to get/keep him at least a little interested in the fish, ya know :B He said he doesn't like fish that look like little worms. I showed him the Rams I want to get - they're smaller than I remembered, but they're so cute! I saw some Apistos that looked similar to the rams, but were bigger. How aggro are they? Are they okay in a community tank?

One more question - will by big Neons be okay with my little Neons?

Had to share - getting new fish is so much fun!

What size tank were you planning on putting the rams or apistos?

Do you know what kind of Apistos they were?

Apistos can be aggressive when they breed, some more than others.

Sorry, not sure about the neons, I've always bought them the same size.

Edit:

Here's a good Apisto site:
