So since im getting the top fin aquarium kit soon, and im thinking of getting the following fish:

Ballon belly molly
Tiger barbs
Jumbo neon tetra
Cory catfish
Zebra danios
Fancy guppies
Hi fin platy
Red-blue tetra

Too much fish?
Anyways, just tell me if I need to remove anything from the list please.
And im getting the tetra 60-70 gallon filter are there any other good filters out there?
Thanks in advance :thanks:

The capacity of the tank is an important factor. How many Gallons if water can it hold?
 
I'm not entirely sure of how big those particular fish get, but people generally suggest that you have atleast 1 gallon of water per every inch of the fish (at their adult size). So you'd have to figure out how big each fish will get, add all of their sizes together, and make sure it doesn't exceed to far past 55 inches.
 
With the rest of that stocking list, I would skip the Tiger Barbs. I think you would have some fin nipping issues from those barbs.
