Hi Guys,

I have been allowed to go it alone by my OH and have adopted a rena aquarama 80L tank

we already have a juwel 240 which he is in charge off.


I would like to add to my tank
6 Columbian Tetra
6 Harlequin Rasbora
6 Zebra Danio ( our little frys ready for integration)
and 5/6 Corys for the bottom

does this sound a good combination?

everything else is dead easy, but I have seen the columbian tetras in the goldfish bowl in Oxford, but there is limited info on the net, does anyone have some first hand experience>
any info and advice would be much appreciated.

the tank has currently got a sand substrate, which I would like to mix with pea gravel and add a layer of soil at the bottom of the tank to help the valace and some crypts


(I want to win what will turn out to be a competition with my OH)

Thanks in advance

Jo

The corys, I am quite liking the Bronze, Rabauti or Sterbai.
