Hello guys I am brand new to all this just went from a 5 gallon to a 20. I have a 110 on stand by for when I buy a house and start my salt water.

My question is, what's a good rock/fake coral/and or plants to use with sand? I have a suckered fish (not sure what they are actually called) and cat fish that will only stay a inch and half long and on the bottom of the tank and two more that are only inch long that swim everywhere in the tank. But I am looking to get a couple more unique fish then about 6 to 7 school type fish to fill the tank a little but not over due it.

Looking for the tank to be close to a reef tank but freshwater. Any ideas on fish also? Such as ones to clean the bottom for me, or would the cat and suckered take care of that?

That's what I have so far. (hope the picture shows up first time on tap talk app)
 
For rock, Texas holey rock would be my suggestion if trying to achieve the reef style look in a freshwater environment.
 
I checked out that Texas rock will they grow plants or do I have to place them there. What would be the next step or should I leave it and place plants behind it and use it as a center peace
