I figured I'd double-check myself to make sure I'm not missing anything.
My most recent, and should be final (barring deaths) addition to my 10g tank was a honey dwarf gourami. I went that route because they seem to be smaller than the blue dwarf gouramis, and hopefully not as fragile.
fish
1 honey dwarf gourami
8 harlequin espeis
1 male guppy
1 blue mystery snail
4-5 nerite snails
amano and ghost shrimp
plants
dwarf lily pads (over 1/2 of the surface covered)
4 java ferns attached to driftwood
1 moss ball
filters
AquaClear 20 (100gph)
Duetto 50 (55gph)
water parameters
0 ppm ammonia
0 ppm nitrItes
10 ppm nitrAtes (more like 5-10 ppm)
Am I incorrect to assume my honey dwarf would be OK in this tank? There seems to be plenty of swimming room, and the water parameters are good.

just watch the gourami and the shrimp, mine are notorious opportunists and if they catch the shrimp off guard it's food.
