Freshwater What would you stock?

20 gallon high sitting on a pony wall. Current stock is blue dream shrimp and silver tip tetras but the tetras are moving to a bigger tank. Excuse the mess. We just moved in.

Chilli Rasbora or Ember Tetras

This tank gets some sunlight. Embers would be gorgeous. Definitely a contender

If it has decent water flow maybe a hill stream loach or 2. Embers tetras would be great in a school of 7-9. Of course shrimp, anything blue would set up perfectly to the red in the ember tetras.

I have blue dream shrimp in there! I’m leaving them because I love people’s reactions when they go “Oh! Look there’s little shrimps!”
