:fish:wave: hello so I have a 30 gallon aquarium. It's cycled and I'm ready for some new pet fish :)
Right now I have
-5 golden mountain clouds
-4 neon tetras I have had then a while! And I don't really want more neons :ermm:
Oh and I have 1 corydoras catfish..... Yes I know that they are schoolers and I am going to get some more but I need help with picking some new fish.!! I like to have different kinds of fish in my tank, I love the look of it, I am trying to find is fish that will stay more into the lower or midsection of the tank. I like Tetras but they're just so many different kinds and I cannot make up my mind because they're also pretty! But please someone help me make a list of new fish,,,:ROFLMAO:

Oh ya I DONT want to add that I live Bearer-fish like guppies Molly plates or swordtails thanks everyone :thanks:
 
I would first go ahead and up your schools. Adding other fish before correcting that problem could lead to a lot of unnecessary stress.

Are you looking to make another school of fish or are you wanting more independent fish? I wouldn't really say apistos are large, they top out at 3 inches...

I kinda want a new school or maybe a few independents
 
I just remembered something, you have white cloud minnows in there. Apistos and even rams would be a terrible idea considering you can't be expected to meet their hearing requirement. Have you looked into gourami? You could add 1 as your centerpiece, dwarves, honey and thick lip come to mind. As for another schooler there isn't too much else you'd want for the bottom, I'm not sure if 30g with a school of corys is rough floor space for a school of kuhli loaches and that's the smallest specie that comes to mind. What about a small plecostomus? Pretty sure clowns and bristle nose top out at 4 inches
