    2 bloodfin tetras

    I like the clown pleco. Pretty fish and stays pretty small.

    I think I'm going to do 3 khulis, 3 bloodfins and another neon tetra.

    Dwarf gourami, mine sparkles in my 20g, make sure it's heavily planted. They like the hiding spots the plants give. Threadfin rainbowfish are cool to, I have one.

    Scratch what I said. I think I'll just add 3 bloodfins and another neon. I'll wait until I get my planted 40gb to add more fish. Thanks for the ideas though!!!

    Cool but one thing about the kuhlis- they're not very active except at night so you might not see them too often although mine come up during the day quite a lot awesome fish though

    One of the coolest little fishes I've ever bought for FW has to be the, Banjo Catfish. Yup one of my favorites! Very unique looking. Get no bigger then 2-3" max and awesome lil scavengers :)
