So I went to Petsmart today looking to keep stocking my tank after fishless cycling. There was already 5 tiger barbs and 1 honey gourami in the tank prior so I went to check some new fish out. I have been eying a german blue ram ever since petsmart started stocking them couple weeks ago for $6.49. I also saw a clown pleco o.0 I was so surprised they had those so I got one for $7.99 since they stay relatively small and the color I saw in pictures is amazing.
So far my clown has found a new home under my driftwood and my GBR is already poking around the tank, which I am surprised since I thought they would take a while to get used to their new surroundings. The color still hasn't shown besides a little by its mouth but I expect it to soon. Kept a close watch whether my barbs would bother my GBR and so far so good, they prefer to chase each other rather than pay attention to the ram.
What do you guys think of my stock so far and what should I stock next, if anything? Was thinking a small school of cardinal tetras or a couple more honey gouramis or pearl gourami. Would 3 honey gouramis be ok in my tank even if they are all male? Anything I should know about clown plecos as well?
