Hey - nice tank.....similar size to mine

Couple of initial comments - Clown loaches need much larger tanks than 125litres and tetras do better in shoals of 5 or 6...

As for other pretty fish you could look at there are quite a few community fish including Neon Tetras, Harlequin Raspboras, Green Swordtails or maybe even a Dwarf Red-stripe Gourami? I've got White Cloud Minnows and they are pretty cool - look much better in a planted tank than in the LFS! The Tetras / Raspboras / Minnows do best in a shoal so you'd need to watch your overall stocking level.

Alternatively you could get a couple of Dwarf Neon Rainbowfish as they are small enough for your tank....

Just a few ideas - if you want more specific detail on which fish would be most suitable then the best bet would be to post your water test results as obviously different fish prefer different conditions....

Hi Phil,

Thanks I did get some more tetras - I know my loaches will need a bigger tank eventually they are still only babies at min I am working my way up lol (its an expensive hobby eh!). Started off with a hexagonal 67 litre.
