Planted tank
I have started a 30 gal planted tank and currently have it set up and cycling with no fish, but i was wondering what would go well without eating all the plants. I was thinking angelfish neon and other small tetras and maybe clown loaches. Any opinions?

I wouldn't put anything small with the angels, larger tetras like bleeding hearts would work better, and maybe some cories. But stay away from the neons if you get angelfish, because when it gets large enough it will eat them.

30gal, you could have 1-2 angels.
Definately not neons or small tetras/fish, if an angel can get it into its mouth its food, believe me!
Clown loaches will way outgrow a 30gal tank and are not suited, they also punch holes in your plant leaves as they get older. Maybe some Yoyo loaches, although there are quite a few smaller types, research that.
Cories go well will angels, platys, redtail black shark, gouramis, the list goes on.
