I'm advancing on my next project, which is a black water tank. It will have soft water, some rounded stones, a bunch of wood pieces and lots of dry leaves. The idea is to keep the water warmer, I'll probably aim at 27 or 28ºC. I'm not sure if there will be any plants, maybe floaters, maybe something robust. Very slow moving water, ideally no identifiable current. A glass lid to keep the warmth. Dimensions are 80 x 30 x 35 (84 L).
I would like suggestions for the fauna. My original plan is to have only small fishes: ~15 green neons (Paracheirodon simulans), ~10 Tucan tetras (Tucanoichthys tucano) and ~6 Black morpho tetras (Poecilocharax weitzmani).
Which fishes could complement the fauna? The current plan has enough schoaling fishes, but I would like maybe some dwarf cichlids or some small corydora. Which corydora would be suitable for these water conditions, while also being small?
I thought about Checkerboard dwarf cichlids (Dicrossus filamentosus)...
