10 gallon stocking

[tmodell]

So my 10 gallon Is finally cycled!!
Here's my dilemma
I had someone tell me to get
-2 mollies
-3 platys(they're tiny right now)
-4 corys

I went to the next aquatic store and they said it may be overstocked but it'll be ok if I do more frequent qater changes.
Advice? Any help is appreciated!!

Taylor, this link should help. You know the size of your tank, and which types of mollies, platys and corys you have so your the best person to help figure this out with the use of this awesome tool! Hope this helps!

Nice Taylor, I have a 10G also with mollies. They're great fish to keep and just admire as they grow and develop their personalities.

Mollies get too large for a 10g, imo. The cories might, too, depending on the species. Mollies reach 5-7 inches.

Mollies need more swimming room. Depending on species they get 3-5"
And I recommend a 30g minimum.

Cories ? Look at Dwarf species like habrosus or pygmaeus. They stay around an inch

I love little fish in my 10g.

I have Cherry Shrimp
Celestial Pearl Danios
Cory habrosus
Otos

If you get Platies, get males. You don't have room for babies.

Same with Guppies.

Well I had to become a member to post pics, so taking full advantage. And I like to see pictures of the fish people recommend.

The CPD pic above is not mine. My pics aren't that clear.
These are my fish
