I currently have a 70 litre (18.5 US Gallon) tank with dimensions of 58 x 30 x 40cm (23" x 11" x 15"). The temperature is kept unheated at around 18 Degrees Celsius (65 Degrees Fahrenheit) with a stocking of 6 Golden White Clouds and 3 Platy (2 female:1 male). According to AqAdvisor, the stocking is 68% and filtration is 450L/H (118G/H). dGH is 5.8 and pH is 7.6. Water changes 50% weekly.
Anyways, I was thinking of getting a few more additions for the tank. It is lightly planted as of right now but I plan to get a whole lot more plants either online or once I'm out of lockdown. My ideas were to have one of the ideas below, please feel free to correct me or say any unsuitable species I’ve listed.
Also looking at new filters for my tank, looking at these: https/www.natureaquariums.com.au/collections/filters/products/pet-worx-800-internal-filter, https/www.natureaquariums.com.au/collections/filters/products/aquael-asap-filter?variant=39939176693953 and https/www.natureaquariums.com.au/collections/filters/products/fluval-underwater-filter?variant=35818372235424.
Any advice is much appreciated, thank you in advance.

- 4-6 Corydoras as I've heard that Peppered and Panda corys can live in cold/room temp
- Hillstream/Borneo loach (unsure if 1 or 3, mixed information) - Tank is starting to grow algae which is perfect for them, can supply high lighting for excess algae growth. Am looking at new filters with high (adjustable) flow with air bubbles for excess oxygen. Will provide multiple hiding spots for other fish to stay away from high flow and put highest flow in one area if this happens.
- 6 Clown Killifish or other cold water killifish able to live in community tank
- Other cold water algae eaters (recommendations?)
