Would I Be Overstocked?

I definitely agree with Harlock. Cories are great fish! So cute and fun to watch. Tetras just kinda swim around and die for no reason

Tetras are nice in huge schools in large tanks, but they were boring when I had them in a small tank.

I agree with you about cories. Easily my favorite fish. I don't agree about tetra's though. I think they get a bad rap because some of them are very fragile and die all time (neons), but there are some that are quite hardy and very interesting to own.

Maybe I'll get some more to go with the 4 I have and move them into the 55g when its ready.

Here I go again. That empty tank sitting there gives me way too much time to think. I have decided to keep the male betta and the neons in the 10g. I have four neons now, how many neons could I have in total? Now on to the bigger tank 55g. Here are my thoughts. My 2 Iredescent sharks (They are about 2") until I find them a new home, 6 danios, 6 white clouds, 6 serpea tetras, 6 glowlight tetras, 6 pygmy cories and 2 blue rams. Would this be too many fish? If it isn't the only other thing I would likt to add is some otos.

I am torn on what to advise you for the ten gallon. 4 neons is just too few for them to feel okay, but 6 neons and a betta is too much for the 10... I'd keep it as is, just provide lots of cover. For the 55 your stocking level is fine, actually.
