Definitely a cory. Not sure what type though. Someone else will tho!

I'm not sure what the other one is. Could you get a pic of the face?

Best I could get now. I don't want to stress more than already.

It looks like a Striped Raphael Catfish and a Bronze Cory

Thank you so much. I did research on the Rafael cat. It's super cool and can live 20 years.

I have a 55gal I am cycling now he can live in forever.

I now have to decide to rehome Cory or get more and what tank to put in. Sad he or she is alone.

Whichever you do make sure the tank has sand as the substrate

Firstly - your tank looks amazing since the makeover! Your fish must be living the dream in there.

Re: your new ones - I think one is a bronze corydoras, and the stripes one perhaps some sort of plec? Not sure what the white ones might be as it's hard to see them - gourami?

Anyway - I've been wrong before, as I'm sure you will see - but they have got a good chance of a happy life with you now. I'm sure someone will identify them, and then you'll be able to find out what they need to thrive.

Best of luck!

You have a Corydoras aeneus and a striped raphael catfish. The latter of which will get quite big and neither of which are suited for a 10g. Corydoras like shoals of their own.
