About Yourself:
Just an average guy who likes fish and I am starting to get ready to expand to a 29 gallon tank.
Fish Kept:
. Neon Tetras- These have been the hardest to keep well. They seem to be more prone to disease then some of my other fish.
Harlequin Rasboras- These are great little fish that school together nicely and seem to be disease resistant
Cardinal Tetra- looks like the Neon’s and will school with them but it seems much hardier and as the Tetras pass-a-way I am replacing with cardinals.
Amano Shrimp- I started with Ghost shrimp but found their life spans to be limited. My Amano shrimp are over a year old and doing fantastic. These are great additions the aquariums and have a good personality.
Corals/Plants:
I have had great luck with various swords and plants that cling to rocks. I have not lost a plant for the entire year, even with running an underground filter. If you are running an underground filter I would consider keeping the plants in their baskets or in the basket substrate.
Tank Size:
10 gallons
Advice:
Some say it is harder to deal with a smaller tank and they can be right. Frequent water changes are the way to go. I had a black algae problem at first but found that by adding snails and cleaning the water conditions quickly improved.

About Yourself:
I used to have a 55-gallon planted tank, but now I am in a smaller apt. so I am trying out the nano tank. So far, I think it is quite elegant, but we'll see how everything fares in the long run! I welcome all (constructive) feedback, so please let me know what you think!
Fish Kept:
3 Otocinclus affinis (a.k.a. Oto Cat)
1 Corydoras julii (a.k.a. Leopard Cory)
1 Corydoras splendens (a.k.a. Elegant or Emerald Cory)
1 Caridina japonica (a.k.a. Amano shrimp)
In the future I would like to add:
10 Neocardinia heteropoda (a.k.a. Red Cherry Shrimp)
Corals/Plants:
Eleocharis parvula (a.k.a. Dwarf Hairgrass)
Hemianthus callitrichoides (a.k.a. Dwarf Baby Tears)
In the future I would like to add:
Vesicularia dubyana (Java moss) affixed to wood in the shape of a dwarf pine tree
Tank Size:
3 gallons
Advice:
Less is more, unless you are talking about plants, in which case more is more! Understock, and in your first month, you are better off not stocking anything at all and letting the plants and bacteria work their magic.
