Okay. So i've decided to probably put all of my fish on Trademe, and start over :'(
Since i'm so far away from a pet store, I think this is the best option, saves me having some lonely fish for half a year.
This time around, ill save up lots of money, buy everything the fish need (All the testing kits) and be sure not to overstock, though the temptation is there.
I was thinking I want small, colourful fish.
I like Emerald eyes, Neon Tetras, Glowlight tetras, Corydoras and rummynoses. 
Just asking for advice of what ones and how many I should have.
Thanks :)

I like the neon tetras, rummy nose and Cory's. If I was you I would have 6 neon tetra and if you have sand a substrate 6 panda Cory's if not Im not sure what I would go for as I have dummy's but they are very active and don't have any experience with the other fish. I'm not great with stocking though as I always want to add more fish to my tanks but I was in your postition last year from Tom
 
Yeah! The temptation is really hard to resist, seeing all those wonderful fish. The only thing that holds me back is my wallet ;) I like corys, so im thinking about Pandas, but i've never seen them before. Ill have to keep a lookout. 
 
I would do.... 
7x neon tetras (or glowlights, up to you)
7x pygmy corys (if you can find anyone selling them and if you have sand substrate)
1x honey gourami (as a centrepiece).
 
Do you know what fish your LFS (mitre 10?) can order in for you? If you don't, it would be worth giving them a call and finding out.
 
Yeah I dont know if I want to use them anymore, when I was there last the fish looked unhealthy, and just last night I found one of my new platies dead on the sand, he didnt look well from the start... 
I was thinking panda cories? 
Never seen honey gouramis... but Animates did have some. Maybe on my fishing trip ill go in and see. 
Do you think Emerald eyes would be okay? They're really cool schooling fish :)
