Stocking 55 Gallon

[Kettemoor]

Hey everyone! I predict my cycling will be finished this weekend on my 55 Gallon and I think after weeks of deciding I have figured out my stocking list. Let me know how it looks and please maky any suggestions or repremand me for planning an overstocked tank.

2 Blue Gourami
2 Paradise, Gold, or Dwarf Gourami
9 Tiger Barbs
13 Rasbora or 7 Zebra Danio
5 Cory
12 Amano Shrimp

This tank will be live planted with lots places to feel safe and break LOS. Let me know if I should do anything different.

i would have went for a higher number of only one type of gourami

if you are going to get the blue gourami, i would make the other pair a gold gourami.
i would also have more than 5 corys. 6 or 7 would be good though.

overall, it looks good!

How large will the Amano be when you get them? The Barbs and or Gourami may go after them if they're on the small side. Looks good though! Make sure to add slow so that you don't lose your cycle.
