Stocking

[KraKen]

Well after over 2 months my tank is finally nearing the end of it's cycle so it's time to think about stocking.(Actually I've been thinking about it for quite some time )

So here's my potential stocking list,

2 Zebra Spiny Eels
5 Myers hatchet fish
3-4 guppys
3 sparkling gourami
3 ottos
1 bamboo shrimp
1 dwarf Mexican crayfish

My tank is 20 gal with sand and some plants, but I'm going to add a lot more soon.

I won't be adding the eels and hatchet fish until my multi-canister filter is up and cycled.

Sorry to dissapoint, but IMO that would be overstocked. The crayfish may bully the other fish, idealy, krayfish need to be on their own.

Crayfish would be suitable until It got bored and decided to snap your fish in half.

That kind of crayfish only gets to be about 1.5 in and I hear it leaves fish alone, but I doubt I'll be able to find one so it's probably a moot point.
