apisto, honey gorammi,and anything cool or unique. I have lighting, a heater ,filter and hope for live plants. Not a big fan of school fish but if its cool ill look at it. The best filler I've seen i[/font]d pearl daino. What to put in, fish and plant!!! Thanks I'm open to anything!!!!
 
Be patient, it takes a while for us to reply. I am only learning, but I can help a little bit, while you wait for someone more knowledgable.
I am sorry to hear about your cray.
As for fish...
I can tell you right away that you can not have the red tailed shark, as they get far too big for a twenty gallon tank.
If your tank is a "long" tank, about 60 cm, you could probably have either a bristlenose catfish or a bulldog/rubber nose Pleco, both of which are pretty cool "suckers". I have a baby calico bristlenose in my 25 gallon, which is a 60cm long tank, and he provides me with no end of amusement.

Glass catfish are cool, but I find them difficult to see, which is something to take into consideration, depending on where you are viewing your tank from. I like watching my tank from my bed, and I would not be able to see them from that far.

Some of the dwarf cichlids would work for your tank, depending on what else you are planning on stocking. Also be aware that most cichlids will get aggressive if they are breeding, so be careful with that.

Plants I am useless with unfortunately! I wish you luck. I do know that "water sprite" is a great plant that can be planted or used as a floating plant. I wish I could get my hands on some!

If you post your water ph and hardness, I may be able to help you a little better regarding fish.
 
Water Stats?

Without knowing I can suggest:

3-5 Ctenopoma Ansorgii
Dwarf Cichlids would work.
Some Ctenopoma Acutirostre
Peacock Gudgeons
