I have turned direction of where I want to go with my 125. I wa soging to go with a catfish style tank and changed direction after some research.

I want to go with a planted tank with smaller schooling fish and have a peaceful community tank.


Here is my new list, tell me what you think and what you might remove, add or increase. I want alot of color.

12 DENISON BARBS 10 ZEBRA DANIOS 4 NEON BLUE DWARF GOURAMI 6 FALSE JULII CORY CAT 6 RED FIRE GUPPIES 6 GREEN COBRA GUPPIES 6 BLUE COBRA GUPPIES 6 BOESEMANI RAINBOW 10 HARLEQUIN RASBORA 5 SIAMESE ALGAE EATER 10 OTOCINCLUS CATFISH 20 CARDINAL TETRAS 20 NEON TETRAS 10 BLACK SKIRT TETRA 10 X RAY PRISTELLA TETRAS

I taked with a few people and want to know what plants I can have. I was told with my lighting I can have anything, but I might have too much light. I will be using 4 96 watt Power compact bulbs. 2 are 10K daylight bulbs and the other 2 are Actinic.
 
I dont know what puntius denisonii is.

I made the list not only for compatibility, but for size as well. I want to stick to smaller fish. I think the largest fish I have in the list is 3 or 4 Inches. The tank is 6 feet long 18 inches high and 24 deep.
 
Otherwise Hows my lighting? Is it too much for a planted tank? What could I keep that is easy? I want to start out slow and get the hang of caring for plants.
