A botia that the name escapes me

2 galaxy rasboras, a dania and the large pleco's fin (the picture I took of it didnt come out so well)

A newt, and salt and pepper cory who seem to be good friends often times when the cory has settled down (not often) it will perch near to the newt and if it moves the cory follows it also caught the reflection of a platy or 2 who also had bad pictures

WOW the tank looks great! With the newt I would lower the water and put in some floating plants so he has somewhere to hold when he's getting air. I question the botia and the galaxy in the same tank. I've never had neither of them but a gut feeling says no way. Do they get along. I may learn something new.

tiger loach http://pages.prodigy.net/rahill0/species/tiger.html
And he will eat those galaxys in time.
How many corys do you have? They do beats in groups of 6 and are much happier with sand to dig in.

The tank looks quite nice!

I have 5 corys, lost two when I moved the tanks, they were about 4 years old for the two I lost. And I didn't know that about the tiger loaches, thanks for letting me know, I have 2 clown loaches that leave the the rasboras alone, and I haven't had any issues, but I will keep an extra close eye on the situation. I also have plans on getting more Corys asap, but a friend is getting married and being in the wedding party has made it difficult to find time to get out to the pet store.

I have a amazon sword that sits out of the water and the newt climbs onto that and a fake plant that is part of a decoration that it will also sit on, getting most of the way out of the water.
