Give the cories some caves incase they need to get away from the rts...

clown loaches instead of the cories or the rts?

Clown loaches are a lot of fun just like cories..make sure you get them in a group

In a tank that size I doubt you will have problems either way. My brother has kept a RTBS with cories and they never fought. The RTBS was too busy fighting with a cherry barb.

The real problem comes with fish that have a similar shape to the RTBS (SAE, Flying Fox etc...).
