Topping 'er off

[GobyGuy5]

I'm finishing stocking my 15 gallon community tank, currently the following fish inhabit it:

3 Platys
1 Ottocinclus
1 Bumblebee Goby
1 Clown Loach (small)
2 Bolivian Rams

Currently I don't have any fish that swim around in the upper levels of the tank, and was wondering if you guys had any suggestions..............

Zebra danios, don't get more than 2-3 b/c they're so active. Hatchetfish come to mind also but they don't seem to do much.

I've never had Hatchet fish, but like their weird look..

hatchets (silver or marbled) are definitely jumpers, so make sure you have a pretty tightly sealed lid before you even consider them, but given the right environment, I think they're great additions.

I think fish that would jump, could be a problem, my tank is covered well, except for were my power filter is located, is it possible to remedy this?

ummm.....butterfly fish maybe....no...might get pecked my platies...
zebras sound good....maybe some dwarf blue groumies

If the fish you already have could vote, youir Clown Loach would vote for two more Clown Loaches, exactly his size...

If your rams start to get busy, they won't like any bottom dwellers around.

I would also suggest some zebras.

I need some experienced opinions:

Do dwarf gouramis hang out at the top of the tank or all levels?

how is the goby doing? He needs meat and salt! the goby is kind of timid, I would be suprised if he got to eat, with the platys in the tank. The clown loach is going to get big about 6" and they hate to be loners. The oto need to be in a school also. You have quite the mix in your tank. Good luck trying to sort it out.
