Please Help Me To Pick My Fishes!

[fishlover1234]

I am new to feeding fish. I have a 20gallon long tank. I have everything setup except fishes.
Please help me picking these fishes that i listed below.

I looked up these fishes on https/www.liveaquaria.com

FW - Rio-Negro Pleco X 1

FW - Hi Fin Lyretail Swordtail X 2

FW - Assorted Platy X 3

FW - Boesemani Rainbow X 1

FW - Glowlight Tetra - Small X 2

FW - Green Cobra Guppy X 2

FW - Penguin Tetra X 2

CF - GloFish, Assorted X 6

I know this might be too much for a 20 Gallons tank.
PLEASE tell me what should i keep and quantity of each type of fish !!


Thank you so much!!

You cant keep the bosemani rainbow. They are large, active scholling fish.

It would be better to keep the GloLights and Penguins in larger groups.

Is your filter cycled?

Glow-lights, pengiuns and to some extent coryadoras are best kept in groups of 5 or more, they are a shoaling fish.

Same goes for the guppies; they'd rather be in groups. 2 wouldnt be enough to keep them happy.

Also for the platies, you'd need to have 1 male and two females to prevent stress from harassment from the males. Be aware that this means lots of babies!
