Stocking My New 25g

[MrMashashin]

Well, I got a 25g tank at a garage sale today and it's going to cycle till Friday I believe. I was wondering what kind of fish I should toss in there. I was thinking a variety of tetras. This is the list of what I think I might put in there but I'm open for suggestions and comments.

6x neon tetras
4x Blind Cave Tetras
4x BP Tetras
2x Blackwiddow Tetras


List 2

2x angels
4x jumbo neons
3x mollies

I really don't know what I'm going to do but tommarow I'm going to Gander Mountain and Pets Mart is accrost the street. If I find some Dwarf Puffers or something cool, I'll go there next weekend.

I really like the tetra tank idea, MrMashashin, though you might consider 3 species and increase the numbers, as they'll be more comfortable and likely to school that way.

I'm curious what you meant by this though:

I got a 25g tank at a garage sale today and it's going to cycle till Friday I believe.

How are you cycling your tank?

How tall is your tank? Angels need a tank that's 18" tall b/c of their long dorsal and ventral fins. If your tank's not a tall one, I'd definitely go with the first option.

ModernHamlet, I'm cycling fishless till then. I may add a few cories by wednesday or thursday. My tank is a 25g Tall. It's measurements arn't known at this perticular moment.
