I have two glowlight tetras, one albino cory and some kind of loach, in a ten gallon tank. I am going to buy two dwarf gouramis, three cardinal tetras, and three more glowlights. I have already reserched the fish and just wanted to get some feedback from some other people on this combonation. I will send some pics when I can borrow a digital camera.:)

personally i would be worried that your setup may get a little crowded..particularly if the gouramis get nippy and i know that the dwarfs can do that. however it does sound like a nice colourful setup and with the right filters it will probably be real pretty


--edit---

you know what thinking about it that would probably not be crowded at all...i would still watch for the dwarfs getting nippy though

Tetras will be happier in a group of like fish--and in a small tank, you won't get distinct schools. I would drop the cardinals, get 4 glow lights, and 2 cories. The dwarf gouramies might argue with each other, but shouldn't bother the other fish. Make sure you have lots of floating cover, and they should be fine.

I would do the same as OG said, get 4 more glowlight tetras so you have a nice school of 6 and get to more of the same cories to give the other guy company. After all, they are schooling fish.
