4 Gourami(4got what kind, the name startes with an O or I and their blue, not dwarf neons tho. Petco said they grow 3'' or 4''.
6- Albino Cory Cats.
This is all im going to stock.

Im going to make a species Profile for the current fish in my 55g and my 20g so if anyone has any info/quick tips that i can include in my species profile, all info will be welcomed and if u can leave a link or website of where u find your info so that i can site them. Im going to college for aqauculture so im trying to learn as much as i can.

Opaline gourami. That or a blue spot gourami. They get to be about 6" and can sometimes get somewhat semi-aggressive when older.

angelfish pairs are extremly aggressive when breeding so a tank divider is necciary

silver dollars somtimes eat plants

gouramis can get very aggressive (keep in mind that they're related to bettas)

yeah at 1st my angels had so many territories that the opalines were always hiding behind a sword plant but i ruffled around the gravel and moved the plants around so all territories are gone and everyone swimming with everyone now. I know there are some aggrestion issues with the pair and the goruima but im hopeing the tank is big enough and they can always use the SD's as Dithers. SD;s are fast enought, my angels have tryed going after them but they cant catch them.

And i know my SD's eat everything i drop into the tank

I guess I've never been a fan of silver dollars. Or maybe too much of a fan. I believe they should be in a group of 5 or more and have lots of swimming room. I think you should lose them and get some corys or larger tetras.

i actually have a school of about 6 corys. Ive grown attached to my SD's but it sucks that i cant use live plants b/c of them
