the tank is too small to keep the rainbows. you could go for a smaller type such as dwarf neon blue rainbows, not sure about the catfish.

hope this helps

the rainbows at the petstore are really small and have been there since last new year, they are in a 15 gallon tank with about 10-12 individuals, so would they be happier in a 20 with only 3 of them? when i mean small as in 3 inches and dully colored.

I'm not an expert, but I've been researching hatchetfish because I plan to put some in my 30 gallon. Everything I've read says they need to be kept in groups of at least 6 or they tend to die for no apparent reason. I don't know about the others, but just a warning on those.
