Do I have room for more fish?

that's fine, but to someone inexpirienced, in reference to a fish that is SO OFTEN abused by ignorant owners who buy the cute little 2" common pleco and put it in a 10, 20, 30 gallon tank, "Throw in some plecos" is a VERY dangerous statement.

Actually, that's not a good rule of thumb at all. It just doesn't work --

We really don't recommend that anyone use that as a way of stocking a tank.

Primetime:

You need to up your tetra school to at least six. They'll do far better when they are stocked as they should be. The Rasbora is a schooling fish as well. Is he going to be left alone, or could you consider giving him a family too?

Well 4 is the maximum I can go with Congos, but the Neons are slowly being added. They won't stay in my 55 for long because the Bala will eat them and right before getting this ich problem; I was thinking of moving them to my 10 gallon, but now I gotta wait 2 weeks.

... you do know that most dirt plecos (average ordinary petco plecos) get to be over a foot in length and are poop machines... but, most people dont have clown plecos in their petstores just common plecos...

kuzikan plz do some more research, as others have stated, the inch per gallon rule has been discused and destroyed many times before on this forum...
