@anewbie tank is a 20high, moderately planted.

also if you could expand the list, what would you add?

In a 20 high i would go with a smaller tetra like glow light or ember; or a small rasbora like cdp (there are a gazillion different species that work). cherry barbs are nice - but i think i would skip them in a 20 high. A bit depends on your target temp - most tetra/rasbora prefer soft water. ember tetra/glow light tetra can handle warm water (78-82) better than many of the rasbora. I'd just pick the ones that you like the most but stick with 10-12 of the smaller species. You can get as many as 15 i guess.

black neon are fairly large and 20 high won't give them as much swimming area.... so i would skip them.

Don't be so sure.... Neolamprologus multifasciatus are pretty small. You could keep a whole colony in a 20 high; though they do have some special requirements.

this is a thread of me looking for a new addition for my community tank,not a tank reset,so hence psuedemogials, tetras, rasboras.

I like the looks of the RainbowFish the most but if I were to keep a species as a schooling fish, it would probably be the Black Neons.. Also depends on your tank size.

I approve of the barb being there.

On the list. I vote glowlight.

Off the list.  Green neons or silvertip tetras.   Barbs... I mean.  Green tigers.
