i have a planted (not heavily but am working on it) 35 gallon tank that currently houses 20 neon tetras and 2 albino longfin bristle nose plecos. i was just wondering what else you guys would suggest for my tank

I'd be a little worried about OSing but..

How about a few Celebes Rainbow (Telmatherina ladigesi)?

OS = over stocking

oh. okay, yeah i was wondering if i was a little overstocked or not.

I would reccomend spelling it out. Abbreviations are a great thing but can be over abused. The only things I abbreviate really ever are the standard AIM terms like lol and lmao, and local fish stores LFS.

Yeah, it's just that I visit several different aquarium forums, and some abbreviations are so common I forget that not everyone is used to them. Sorry. ^^

As far as if you are overstocked or not... I'm not an expert on plecos. Not sure what kind of bioload they produce. It also depends on your filtration system, how often/much your water changes are, quality of tap water, etc.

Probably wouldn't suggest adding much more. As plecos can be a bit messy, and if you go by adult inches per gallon rule. Your pretty close to your limit. Especially if you plan on planting it up more, I would not add anymore fish.
