Platies are smaller, come in more
Colors, and can interbreed with swordtails. Molly's like harder water with even a little salt preferred

Hey I'm no expert on coldwater fish but I actually am running a tank with no heater at 71ish degrees as well. I have celestial pearl danios and they do well in cool water, and I'm sure they would appreciate the low filtration current.

You could have celestial pearl danios and sparkling gouramis. Really there are many fish that are perfect for a 10.

Alright maybe I'll consider ottos then in a few months. Thanks for all the help guys. Those clown killifish look really cool

Could I have
15 cpds
6 kuhlis
10 pygmies
And a school of the clown rainbowfish or a smaller group of the sparkling gouramis?
Would one of these setups work better with a pair of betta albimarginata than the other?

Yeah I know I'm really bottom dweller heavy. My thought is that if I can find the pygmy cories, I would probably have a school of them instead of the pandas. They're said to be more of a mid water swimmer than traditional cories. I have no experience with otocinclus tho to know where they spend...
So I'm working on stocking a 30 gallon tank
I currently have
7 celestial pearl danios
5 black kuhli loaches
And a couple of red cherry shrimp.
I'm looking to add some other fish in, all with what I think have low bioloads
Some more cpds
Maybe another kuhli or two
School of pygmy cories...
Yeah 20 gallon tanks are very common and great for a wide variety of fish. What was said earlier about the surface area is true, since there is less surface area you can not stick the tank quite as heavily. Do you have live plants in your tank? They can help with oxygen and what not. I would say...
I don't know whether they're readily available in your area, but you could have a nice school of celestial pearl danios and your betta. You could always go with kuhli loaches or small cories. If you go with those platies I bet they would be happy to breed.
