Thank you all very much
Non aggressive community fish suitable for a 20g tank would be most any
tetras which do not exceed 3", corydorous catfish, kuhli loaches, any of
the 4 main livebearers (though the Molly would prefer salt in their
water), small algae eaters such as Oto cats & SAEs, many barbs (ie:
cherry barbs), many of the gouramis (ie: dwarfs, pygmy, croaking, pearl),
various rainbows (if your water is a bit harder), various danios (zebra,
leopard, pearl). Then there are shrimps, frogs, snails etc. Siamese
fighting fish often make good community fish (though not always with male
guppies or with very small fish). A Rainbow shark might be fine as well,
as would many of the smaller cichlids. The list is extensive, and it
depends on your recipe. Angelfish can be very good community fish, but
like tall tanks, would eat very small fish and might be tormented by fast
danios (it's all in the recipe you choose).
I suggest you start by determining your water parameters, to see if you
have an extreme condition (very hard or very soft) which would be more
suitable to certain fishes (tetras and livebearers come from opposite
water conditions). Then look into your options for cycling the tank (ie:
6 zebra danios or fishless cycling
