I have a lightly planted tall 20 gallon tank. Well once the plants start to grow it will be a bit more heavily planted. I have 8 cories in there at the moment, i was wondering with other fish could i put in there. I thinking along the lines of bright fish, like guppies etc....

Due to the dimensions of the tank I'd reccomend sticking with smaller fish rather than larger fish. Guppies would work, if you either got all males or had someplace for all the fry you'll end up with .
You might also want to look at some of the smaller barbs. Cherry barbs or gold barbs have nice coloring, especially in a planted tank. Rasboras are another choice you might want to look into...take a walk around your LFS and write down some names of what catches your eye.
