20 Gallon Stocking

[Newbie Fishkeeper]

I have a 10 gallon tank that I'm looking to upgrade into a 20 gallon. In my 10 I have a trio of platies, a trio of guppies, and a peppered cory. What else could I add to the 20 to complete it?

probably a few more cory cat or some tetra neon/cardinal etc.

I should add that it would be a 20 high and not long, I don't know if that affects anything too much or not.

Not really. What are the sexes of the platties/guppies? If they are breeding or not will influence your decision on how many more fish you can add. I'd add a couple cories and maybe a smaller schooling fish like neons/cardinals, some other type of tetra, or maybe some danios.

Cories need to be kept in groups of 3 or more for them to really show thier stuff..LOL...

The trios consist of 2 females and a male but fry are not a problem, I have a seperate growout tank for them. Also, would I be able to add a small school Harlequin Rasboros? (sp?) Along with another cory or two?
