My 24 Gallon now has
5x neons
6x gold barbs
2x gourami (1 new)
2x yo yo loach
2x corydora
2x gold gourami
2x paradise fish

I'm not sure if to get another 3 or 5 neons to keep the shoal together, and to make it a bit bigger.
But i'm pretty much done, what do you think?

I think three more should do it. Yep then it would sound pretty much done ^__^

3 neons won't put any added pressure on your filter. You should be ok.

Aaaaaarghhhhh!
I just saw one of the paradise fish shred up my smallest neon!
He just came over and chewed him up
The guy in the pet store said that the paradise fish will leave all other fish alone
once again lfs not having a "jar of glue"

Well paradise fish are aggresive...have you seen this behavior before? Mabye try to get some large neon tetra.

Paradise fish are known to be aggressive. Mine was, untill I got a gold Gourami thet killed it, and 2 other fish before I donated him to a LFS.

Also, if your Paradise fish are both male, chances are 1 will kill the other, much like 2 male bettas.

I don'y think I would listen to this LFS at all, and I would return 1 of the Paradise fish ASAP.
