Stocking ideas for 50 gallon tank?
There are just so many options as to what I could put in my tank, I'm having a hard time narrowing it down! I wanted others opinions. Here are some of the fish I was looking at.
Pearl Gourami
Galaxy Rasbora
Clown Pleco
Rubberlip Pleco
Rummynose Tetra
German Blue Rams
Neons/Cardinal Tetras
Corydoras (particularly Sterbai)
Boesemani Rainbows
These were just fish I liked the look of, I do NOT plan on keeping all of them in my tank! I am aware of their schooling requirements, etc. but would like input. A few I would like at least two of (gourami and rams), but other center piece fish ideas are welcome! Any personal experiences with hard water (pH 8.2) and these fish is also wanted.
My tank is 50gals, will be heavily planted and be properly cycled and heated. I also have 4 fathead minnows I was thinking about adding, but I'm not sure how well they'd like the heat.
Please? Give me ideas/advice/opinions?

I say this:
10 rummynose
1 blue ram
15 neon tetras
5 corydoras
3 gourmis
... And yeah. I don't know much about the other fish you've mentioned but with this set up you actually can add even more. Just know that all fish have certain needs for their aggression and space, so lots of research is needed! Good luck!
