rearranging tanks

[MXPX4318]

ok so I've got a 29g with 5 swordtails, 2 panda cories, 1 skunk cory, 3 whiteskirts.
I also have a 20g with 6 rasboras, 5 gold barbs, 3 spotted cories, and 2 otos.
I also have a 10g with 3 black mollies and 6 molly juvies. I want to reorganize these tanks and get a couple dwarf cichlids for the 20g so I was thinking about going to this:
29g: 5 swordtails, 2 panda cories, 1 skunk cory, 5 gold barbs, 6 juvie mollies (until they get big enough to take to lfs)
20g: 6 rasboras, 3 spotted cories, 2 otos, pair of kribs or german rams or apistos
10g: 3 black mollies, 3 white skirts (until juvie mollies get big enough then all of these fish will hopefully go to the lfs and free up this tank for q/t).

anything wrong with these ideas or is there a better way to organize these tanks?

i would put the dwarf cichlids in the 29 gallon so they have extra room, especially if you get apistos which seem to be better in trios.

also try to get another cory to go with the 2 pandas and the skunk

ahhh yes but the thing with putting the dwarfs in the 29g is that it already seems quite full to me with the 5 swords, 5 gold barbs, and 3 cories. The other thing is the 20g would be quite understocked with just 6 rasboras, 3 cories and 2 otos. the final issue is the 29g looks like this:

fake plants, gravel, big rocks, not my prettiest tank when you look at my 20g that looks like this:

nice and fully planted, nice driftwood with plenty of crevices and a nice big cave, very much my more favorite tank that I think the dwarfs will really help accent very well. so that's why the cichlids are going in the 20g instead of the 29g but as far as the rest of the fish I'm up for suggestions.

29 gallon:
5 swordtails
3 mollies (the juvies could go in here as well until they grow big enough to get donated or sold to your LFS)
5 gold barbs


20 gallon:
2 Dwarf cichlids (preferably german blue rams, they are quite peaceful)
1 skunk cory
3 spotted cories
2 panda cories
3 whiteskirts


10 gallon:
2 otos
6 rasboras


Does that sound okay?

personally I would just leave all the tanks as they are now and add a pair of German Blues to your 29.

Easy peasy .
