I just finished the tanks. The 15 gallon was already established with 2 filters. I took a filter, many large ornaments, and 50% of the water and put it into the new 20 gallon to help give the bacteria a kick start. How does this stocking list sound?
15 Gallon:
6 neon tetras
3 cherry barbs (1 male 2 female)
2 ottos
2 platys (1 male 1 female) (the male is stunted
and doesn't try to breed with the female platy. He tries with the neons...)
20 Gallon:
6 black neon tetras
2 gold barbs
2 black skirt tetras
1 bristle nose pleco
