ok, here's what i've got...
29 gallon planted aquarium
6 tiger barbs
2 ottos
2 julii corycats
1 female krib

soon to be moved:
1 comet goldfish
1 pineapple swordtail

possible permanent resident:
1 diamond tetra (i was buying plants and he got sucked up in the bag when the clerk was filling it with water... FREE FISH! YAH!)

ok, so i figure i've got a bit more room...

i was thinking of either getting 2 more diamond tetras or taking the diamond back and getting 4+ rummy nose tetras... i need a top fish.

what does everyone else think?

if you've got suggestions of some other fish let me know. i always like reading stocking suggestions.

6 tiger barbs, 2 ottos, 2 julii corycats, 1 female krib, 1 comet goldfish, 1 pineapple swordtail & 1 diamond tetra. Are all these going in a 29 gal. tank?. If yes, you are overstocked & Corydoras & Tetra's need to stay in schools. The Comet Goldfish will get quite big aswell.

I say pick up an extra 2-3 cories, and keep the diamond tetra and fill out the school a bit. Diamond tetras are far more striking when they grow up than rummynose tetras, eventhough rummynose are nice
