Starting a new tank, is this good...

[Acrus]

Hello all!
Well after 5 years of not having a tank going i'm going to start up a new one. I'm in the process of cycling it. My question is, 5 tiny White Clouds good for cycling a 20 gal?

IMO yes they are quite hardy

Or you could try Danios everyone loves Danios

Sure, anything small would be great for that size of tank!

I tried cycling with white clouds and all 5 died. So I started again with danios and the 3 of them have cycled 3 tanks and are still happy and healthy. Never a sign of ich or fungus in any of them

Thanks for the Input! Greatly appreciated. My original idea was to in fact, go with Danios, but the LFS also sudgested W.Clouds, and they were .99 cents each...

So far they are all very active and seem quite happy. But here is something i found strange, i didn't know W.Clouds were aggressive with each other. And by this i mean, they are all squaring off, as if displaying dominace... rather odd?


Once again, thanks for the input!
