Thank You all for the Post

this is what i have thought so far

option 1)
Will go with the Tangs and Black Sand, with lots of round pebbles
8-10 Nos Frontos
12 Nos Leleupis
8-12 Nos Gold Head Comps or Black calvus
few whip tails or bristle nose plecos for bottom and cleanup crew

Option 2)
DISCUS with white sand or big and small pebbles as substrate (what do u suggest ? )
12 Nos of same color and size (blue or marboro)
huge school (30-40Nos) of Neon Tetra/Glow Light Tetra / black neon tetra / Rasboras
20 Nos Cory (sterbai / panda / julie )
2 Pairs of German Rams
3 Nos Bristle Nose Pleco
1 Nos Zebra Pleco (been in my wish list since long)

Will try floating plants in both the setups but no extra efforts will be taken for them....

What say ? any suggestions are most welcome...

Why not a native setup??
I would go for 12-14 Etroplus canarensis + a shoal (atleast 10-12) of Dawkinsia assimilis for this tank... - No need of adding any plants, a simple setup of some drift woods and some round rocks.

Ping me in whatsapp will pass on the information.

And I guess we have de-railed quite a bit this thread, so let us continue conversation not related to this through pm.

How about some Central Americans ? Can handle the heat and cold very well, robust and hardy and definitely colorful. Setup with round rocks thin layer of sand and some twigs or branches and your done.
