I haven't kept many of those fish in your list, but I can tell you that Neons are better off in larger numbers. I suggest 6.
Swordtails kept pretty big compared to other livebearers. You might want to look into Platies or Guppies.

ok think il look into guppies and more neons

Dwarf loaches need to be kept in large groups (5 or more). They are also an expensive fish and require precise water parameters. Therefore I would not recommend keeping them.

Also, I think the swordtails would not look right.

I suggest increasing the numbers of neon tetras and corydoras slightly and getting a honey gourami.

I would bump it up to 4 panda corys, and 7 neons; forget about the swordtails...in my opinion they get too big for a 13g. Your tank looks really nice btw, I love the driftwood.

i'd up the neons to 8 and the cories to 5. forget the swordtails and the loaches, try some mollies/guppies/platies or a dwarf gourami

Thanks for the replies, heres the current list im looking at

6/7 neons
5 panda corys
few guppys

Think this will do me for a while and i will see how i get on but i'll probably add some dwarf loaches if everything goes smooth. Is there anyway to get rid of the cloudy water in my tank? It was almost instant when i set it up

Did you wash the gravel beforehand? It could be dust or small particles of the rock. It should settle in a few days.

...I just looked at your picture again, and it does look like those are small suspended particles. Your filter and some water changes should clear it up.
