Hi, I have a 60L tank and using the gallon stocking method I can have about 16" fish, using the water surface area method I can have 20" of fish - so I am working on somewhere around those numbers.

My reading suggests that the Mollies/Guppies could get to 2" each.
Cardinal Tetra's from what I read can grow to 1-1.25".

I have 3 Mollies (that were given by a friend), 6 Cardinal Tetra's and I've just brought 3 LOVELY! Guppies.

This leaves me with about 2" for something else.

So do I get a snail, shrimp or something else?! I fancy something that would stand out. From what I've read most shrimps like to be kept together - does the cherry cope on its own? (I love the colour!) - I've also read that with the snail you need to leave a gap at the top of the aquarium and I'm not sure how that would look......!

Here's a pic of it currently (although not a great pic - I'm still working on getting a good one!)

That is a great looking tank!


What about a dwarf gourami?
