OK, in my last thread I told you guys that I bought a 25 gallon tank from EBay, replacing my 20 gallon one.
This tank is 24x12x20.

My current fish are:
-4 Neon Tetras
-3 Otos
-2 Diamond Tetras
-2 Guppies

Is my tank full? Or is there room for some more fish? If there is, what should I get?
Can I get a couple small clown loaches?

what would you do when the clown loaches get big?

You could try a couple paradise fish.
 
Please don't get clown loaches unless you plan on getting something larger (like 90 gallons). Your tank is almost full depending on what you put in there. Please research the fish first before you buy. Check out http://www.aquariacentral.com/species/fresh.shtml for a species list to find out how much care is necessary for certain fish. Don't make the mistake I did and end up having to upgrade for the fish's sake :)
 
I second the paradise fish. Very hardy and loads of fun to watch. 1male and 2 females is the usual pairing i believe...im not sure if 1 male and 1 female is acceptable but i dont see why not.

Alright, I am not getting clown loaches.
I like the paradise fish but Im hesitant on buying them because of their aggressiveness. Will they harm any of my fish?

I own 4 of them.

Mine got aaggressive toward each other. After they got their own space, their fine. I had some red fin tetras( i moved to another tank) the paradise fish never touched them. They left my danios allow also.
 
I would start with 2 more neons and at least 4 more diamond tetras. Maybe a few more Oto's too if they're doing good right now.
