  1. A 12-foot pleco?
    Do you maybe mean a 12-inch pleco?
    The problem with your stocking plan is that mollies like hard, alkaline, and very warm water, while kribs and glowlight tetras ideally should have soft and slightly acid water.
    Also, if you get just one krib as opposed to a pair, I think you’ll be depriving yourself of most of the fun of having kribs. They have wonderful mating and spawning behavior to watch and their parental care of their fry is extremely interesting. You’d be better off with a pair (one male and one female). Male and female kribs look quite different, so you shouldn’t have trouble getting one of each.
