what do you guys think of this stocking... is it over stocked? or can i add anything?
~4 guppies one male three female
~3 platies one male two female
~2 mollies one male one female
~2 swordtails one male one female
 
That should be fine, but I would reccommend going with a good size school of fish instead of 2 or 3 of each. A school is a great thing to watch, and compaired to your rams, these smaller fish may be rather boring to watch in such small numbers. just a thought, do whatever you do. <///<
 
My understanding regarding the swords and mollies is that you need a MINIMUM of 2 females for every male. Those poor solo females will be harassed to death!
 
swordtails get pretty big, ive seen some grow 4-5 inches. i dont think you should be keeping them in a 20 gal
