i currently am cycling a 15 gallon tank and i know that i want cories... the other fish i had in mind are as follows. this is my first tank so i dont want anything too difficult. i also have a filter that is recommended for a 30 gallon so it's definately overfiltered which is good. here's the other fish i would like (not all of the fish, deciding between the following):
- golden blue rams
- dwarf gourami
- kuhli loach
- plecos (pitbull or any other one suggested)
- panda or bronze cories

please give me some stocking suggestions!!!

I would go with small species of corydoras or Corydoras panda. Either cories or kuhli loaches.

Honey gourami > Dwarf gouramis
Sparkling gouramis would be even better as they do not grow beyond 4 cm.

Ember tetras (Hyphessobrycon amandae) will fit nicely along with blue rams. How about threadfin rainbowfish (Iriatherina werneri)?
