Thanks! not really used to having this many fish and there just a bit more "sensitive I guess" than just the plain old goldfish and tetras I have had in the past lol. I'm still wanna build a little more maybe I just need to find those perfect rocks - Paying for rocks doesn't seem right so I look for em fishing hiking etc but then cleaning gravel becomes near impossible that's why I try not to keep any on the backside of the tank where you cant see
I don't pay for rocks either. Just make sure you sterilize them before putting them in the tank. As far as cleaning the gravel, don't worry too much about not being able to get under the big rocks, just clean what you can and it'll be fine.

As a precautionary measure, I'd start feeding the fish with garlic soaked food. Once a fish has garlic flowing through it, parasites will run off with their tail between their legs. My dithers for my frontosa somehow caught some kind of super ich, (the dithers were being fed normal food) and the front, who was being fed with garlic soaked food, never had any symptoms and for that reason I never had to move any fish around for treatment because I never needed to worry about the disease spreading.
