New 30g flatback stocking

[Dow]

Any suggestions? I wanted to do cichlids but I'm open to other suggestions. Preferably something easy to clean.

Shellies?

Or maybe apistos.

How do I secure Java moss to rocks and wood? What plants could I put in there ecause I have it up, cycling with gravel from my other tanks in socks but I have yet to buy any plants or gravel from it.

You can use sewing thread of fishing line to tie it to the wood. Over time the moss will attach to it. I prefer sewing thread over fishing line.

Plants are not affected like fish by the nitrogen cycle.

There isn't a whole lot you can do with 30g...make it a planted tank and put some tetras in there

[FrontosaurusRex]

Or a Beta fighting ring.

80 What? No! I plan on doing a few dwarf cichlids and a small school of tetras. That, or a pair of convicts

[FrontosaurusRex]

Dude, if you put Convicts in there, you'll just end up with 100 Convicts and nobody will take them. Get a breeding trio of Peacocks. Ask Mark about finding some small Geos.

[Dow]

I'd love to do geos but from my experiece in shopping for them, my budget can't afford them.
