That is going to be one very cool tank. Your choices of fish are excellent too.
I like all those tetras. You are a genius.

I have decided for all the tetras as they will all school very well.
I hope i can get all the fish i wanted.

Problem is with The Killi Fish so they will be the last fish in the tank.

The crabs and some of the shrimp will eat any waist food and dead fish that i cant get. the algae shrimp and the pleccos will eat the all teh algae. and the amount of cories i have in the tank will clean up every thing else on the bottom. I have tried to go for the top middle and bottom fish as to add colour or the whole tank.

Due to the rock garden at the bottom of the tank loads of fry will survive to grow to adults.

After Visiting a Tropical fish rescue centre i have decided to not have so many tetras in the tank as i dont like how they all group together in one big school.

so i will now get 200 splinter Cardinal tetras. because they are splinters they will cost next to nothing. around 30 cents each.

also because i have found another aquarium that i can purchase i will fill that aquarium with a mixture of fish.

my large aquarium is now going to be filled with lots of fish of the same kind and not one big mass of fish of different breeds.

crap, I messed up my post... was a long one too... ahhh

Its too late to type it all now. but here is a quick recap:

1) Less cat fish of the plec nature. 2-3 from one of the larger growing species is enough.
2) I think its the cardinal tetras you have 20 right? make it 50. This is a dream tank where shcools of fish should school. So have AT LEAST one of your fish choices be a school and not a classroom.

Thats all I can add for now sorry.

Well i was thinking that but.

because the size there isnt going to be enough to tend to the Algae.

so this is why i am having a mix of Plecos. i already have two in my 54l tank which im going to re house.

because the shape of the tank they will not Migrate from one side to the other very oftem. i have found this in our fish clubs tank. they seam to stay to an area. and they are a group fish so if they are all in one leg of the aquarium then they will not move to the other side.
