add two more cories and it'll be great

maybe something like 4 otos to munch the algae?

How can you suggest fish for his tank when you don't know how many gallons/liters it is?


Firstly 'Carp4U', work out how many gallons the tank can hold, then we can help you with stocking.

Just to throw it out there - I have kept tinfoil barbs in a planted tank, and they were fine.

As for loaches that aren't as big as clowns, look for zebra loaches, and try to keep at least 3 together.

And, in my experience otos are totally fine with plants, in fact they're great as they clean the algae off them
