My 40g long is fully cycled, with 0 ammonia, Nitrites, about 10ppm nitrates, pH about 7.

I just stocked it yesterday with 3 golden zebra loach, 4 australian rainbowfish, and 2 boesemani rainbowfish. I know I'm close if not a bit overstocked once everyone matures.
But it's not too bad right?

My question is, the tank is SUPER active, is that normal?
Fish seem very healthy and ate. Rainbowfish are shoaling together. I just have never had a tank so lively or these particular fish before. I worry about them even though I tried to do my homework on them.
 
It's not overstocked just full lol. If they are supper active you doing good! I would do a 15%-25% water change because the nitrites are higher then I like to see. 5 and under is better.
