Stocking A New Tank?

Comment: that'll be your maximum stock.

Suggestion: the fish really would benefit a lot of you had another 8 chili rasboras instead of 8 green neons.

What i'll do is add in the rasboras first, and then if things look nice, i'll add more rasboras rather than neons, i'll just leave it up to how everything looks/works when together

Bear in mind that chilli rasboras are TINY. I originally added 6 to my 50L and to be honest you wouldn't have even known they were in there half the time! Now I have 10 and their tiny little shoal is so cute and their colours are much better. I'd still add more though ideally. But in the end it's up to you

Thank you very much! I'll definitely keep that in mind!!

Be very careful when you buy your dwarf gourami: a lot of them are sickly. I'd go for a honey gourami instead if you can find one.
