You know I guess I'm pretty much guided by my ph (8.1)
I don't want live bearers
So 8.1ph no live bearers with a 22 gallon long 🤔 hmmm ?

@Venomspread3r I’m looking to base my aquarium on lake inle fish or close to that as I can get!

I’m going to probably stock with

Asian rummynose (Sawbwa)
Celestial Pearl Danios

And then I’m not sure because I’ve had lots of people give me ideas but wether you can get those fish is the next thing.. inle loach is one of them

Ideally I need to find something that’s easibly purchasable for the bottom or a cleaner! What have you thought of stocking?

Hi guys sorry its been a while ..well you know Covid happened and I've been run off my feet with work ( I won't complain about that as I'm very fortunate to still have my job) so yes the tank looked all set to go and I was going to get my fish the tank was cycled and well I got Illsome of my family got Ill and it's just not been feesable to get out and purchase the fish.
ANYWAYS I'm healthy now (and family) and it's my birthday next week so I'm going to treat myself to some fish 🐟 BUT I've just checked my tank (I know I should have checked sooner ) I've got these readings
Ammonia : 1.0PPM (It looks more on photo but that's the shadow)
Nitrite: 0PPM
Nitrate: 80-16PPM

What happened? 🤣
