Welcome Aboard!

Sounds lik you're pretty well stocked, but ghost shrimp are great cleaners to add. Plants would depend on your lighting, so knowing that will help.

Some plants to consider are, anacharis, java fern, java moss, and anubias.

Here's a link to a good plant website: PlantGeek.net - Your Aquatic Plant Resource

Hmm, I'd say you're fully stocked--if not overstocked. You should stick with what you have. =]

In my opinion, your tank is pretty well stocked! Agreeing with Mr. Limpet, Ghost shrimp would be excellent cleaners!!

Watch those two mollies... They can get big, but otherwise, your pretty much stocked. I third the ghost shrimp idea!

I'd say with two DG's, any shrimp short of amano shrimp would become snacks.

I definitely would not add more fish. Mollies get up to 5", 3" at the least, and have a massive bio-load at that size. They should not be kept in anything smaller than 29 gals. I would highly recommend you upgrade them to a larger tank or possibly rehome them. A 10 gal tank just isn't a suitable home for mollies.

Keeping 2 dwarf gourami together is not advisable, especially in a small tank. One will almost always end up dominated by the other, if not worse. They are also fairly large fish for a 10 gal, and I wouldn't keep more than one in a tank that size.

IMO a much more suitable stock list for a 10 gal tank would be 1 dwarf gourami, 2 platy, and something like a school of 6 neons. A 10 gal does provide much swimming room for larger fish and, unless you've upgraded, does not have a very powerful filter, so I would be very careful not to overstock.
