i am lucky becouse i have 3 two spots that have not distroyed each outher and outher then a little chaseing here and there i have no problems what so ever but im wondering if i can have anything else in the tank i have a 30 gallon 2 three spots 3 corys a randow fish a snail and some neon tetras any ideas?
 
Yes, purchase 4 more cories. They are social creatures and require a small shoal.
 
I disagree - you already have 3 cories but only one rainbowfish - get yourself more of those. Rainbowfish are also shoalers but rely on a shoal even more than cories do and can become very nervous without others of their own kind... Incidentaly, stick to the same species of rainbow as you already own. If you have room afterwards (which is pretty impossible to judge because you haven't been specific about the number of neons or species of rainbowfish and said 3 2-spots first tiem round and 2 3-spots second time round :p) get a couple more cories to complete your shoal.

How long have you had your three-spots and what sexes are they? You may yet find you are not all that exceptionaly lucky.
 
I agree completely with Sylvia.
We had 3 male and 3 female Paradise fish in a 48G tank and had no problems whatsoever with them. Nobody had ever mentioned keeping males together would be a problem until Sylvia pointed it out. As they were all behaving well, we decided to keep them all and thought we were just lucky! After about 4 months the males started to become aggressive towards each other and fighting amongst themselves. They also became aggressive towards the females.
We ended up taking them back to our lfs and then it was pointed out not to keep males together!
Sometimes people are lucky but the problem doesn't always arise straight away. I'd certainly keep a close eye on them.
 
well the two have been togather for a while and like i said no prolems as of yet and i have no clue what sex they are but this question was sovled last night when i went down stairs looked at my tank and saw a bunch of cory eggs ( i only keeping 1-2 the rest are going into my friends 100 gallon tank ( convenitnly located across the street) as for the neons im thnking of movieing them into my ten gallon to make room for a few more ranbow fish to keep the one i have happy
