The fry will be food for the adults (hate to say it). Non-fry specific, is this enough planting for the adults?

Looks good as long as you're happy with it.

Don't feel too bad about the fry, I raise several types of fish for that exact reason.
 
Decorations are really up to personal preference. Some like a more bare tank, some like as many plants as they can fit. None of the fish you listed require more decorations than you have already, so it's totally up to you.

Btw, I love the contrast between the sand and the blue gravel. Very neat effect :)
 
Hi there,

You have a very sweet set up! I love the decorations :)

I am no expert and still learning with my goldfish, but have noticed they love to swim through tunnels and plants, and having little places to hide. I also find they prefer live rather than faux plants. Live plants are much more work, but they do help maintain water quality.

Hope this helps and good luck.
