Fish?
Awesome!Nice, I've had good experiences with The Wet Spot.
Thank you so much!! That really does mean a lot! I tried to put as much thought as possible into all of it...Rocky, you have done a beautiful well thought out aquascape. I’m sure your cories will approve.
I think both would be a bit too big for this tank - the Denison Barbs need a big 4 foot as a minimum really. Instead of the SAE how about going for some kind of Whiptail Catfish? Most are quite flexible and I think your water is reasonably neutral right?What do you guys think?
Should get a siamese algae eaters or dension barbs?...
Welllll fate had a different opinion of what goes in the tank lol...I think both would be a bit too big for this tank - the Denison Barbs need a big 4 foot as a minimum really.

I wonder if Oddessa Barbs might be a good alternative to the Denisons, similar colours and behaviour just smaller - though a rounder body shape? Not sure if you wanted that Torpedo Shape? Maybe Panda Barbs?
Otocinclus look like that too but they are supposed to be hard to tank breed. If so, that would really be a good luck omen.Welllll fate had a different opinion of what goes in the tank lol...
I know that either wouldn't work but guess what?... Y'all ain't gonna believe this...
The day before yesterday I saw a small fish swimming in my 40g... Right now its about half of an inch... I haven't seen it come back out at all since its first appearance... Its a tan/off-white colored fish with a black horizontal stripe going down the middle...
I have not added ANYTHING since the initial setup! I'm honestly confused about how it got in there... I know it could've been from the plants as an egg, but that was a long time ago and it would've had to survive shipping and high ammonia doses...
When I was looking online, the two fish that matched the profile somewhat (from what I remember about the fish I saw) is the Siamese Algae Eater and Dension Barb....
So yayyy... Free fish lol
I don't think it was an oto... But that would be cool lolOtocinclus look like that too but they are supposed to be hard to tank breed. If so, that would really be a good luck omen.
I tried yesterday but he/she didn't come out... I may try putting brine shrimp in today...Snap a photo if you can, could you feed the tank to coax it out?
