I have my 60 gallon tank set up and I have a few fish in it so far.I am planning on getting more female betta splendens say 3 and some other fish.What would you recommend for a 60 gal (70 us Gals) with this stocking:

1 x Female Betta (Might buy more)
2 (Male and Female) x Peacock Gobies
2 (Male and Female) x African Butterfly Cichlid
7 x Zebra Danios
4 x Albino Bronze Corys
4 x Trilineatus corys
4 x Sterbai Corys

What else Could I add? It is planted with4 live plants and about 8 plastic plants.There is mopani bogwood for cover.
 
if you can find them, Hoplo Catfish
Kuhli Loach
Weather Loach (Very tough fish, can survive spikes in water params that would destroy most fish)
i would say Mosquitofish but those little guys are nasty as heck
i almost tried to keep a few White Clouds with em...BAAAD idea
 
I might get the kuhli's when my external filter arrives but it would be sucked up by the filter i have now.I found an albino cory ALIVE in the filter last week LOL But the mosquito fish are yoo agressive i'd say.I was thinking maybe another shoal of some small fish but I need mid-top dwellers Maybe hatchets?6 of them???XL Silver ones
 
Porthole Catfish
if you want some surface schoolers, there are a few nice Catfish:
Debuwai Shark
Ghost Glass Catfish
 
Thanks =]]A few of the fish at the top have gone now and have been replaced.
 
2 (Male and Female) x Peacock Gobies
7 x Zebra Danios
4 x Albino Bronze Corys
4 x Trilineatus corys
4 x Sterbai Corys
1 x kuhli loach
5 x celebes ranbowfish
 
If you don't want to get catfish lol, i'd go with a school of Giant Danios. They are really cool fish when kept in schools. They look really cool too with their underbite.
 
Hmm i heard BB gobies do well in FW if the water PH is right? 12 of them?Maybe discus or angels.Possibly a sailfin pleco or a gibbiseps pleco.I may also get a sunshine pleco :drool: Also any cichlids that are community safe?Not rams, kribs ect I may get some rams =D
