and again thanx for the help!
 
The first ones look like long finned black widow tetras.
The second one confuses me as it looks alot like my otocinclus but it is slightly different in shape so i think it may be a Chinese algae eater.
Can someone with more experience tell me if i'm correct or not?

the ones on top are long finned black phantom tetras and the bottom is a algae eater
 
The top ones are long finned Black Widow tetra (Gymnocorymbus ternetzi); the bottom one is, I think, a Chinese sucking loach (Gyrinocheilus aymonieri)
 
The top ones are Long Fin Black Skirt Tetra
The bottom ones are Chinese Algae Eater
 
Yay! First time i've ever identified a Chinese algae eater....

You might want to read the fish index thread on Chinese algae eaters, they can be nasty buggers :) :http://www.fishforums.net/index.php?/topic/98998-chinese-algae-eater/
