Update, some stock changes have been made and I now have about 13-15 (gotta try and count the all) Dwarf Paradox Rainbows, a few Featherfin Rainbows, 2 baby whales, a Bolivian Ram and about 13-15 Eight-Banded Barbs. Sudthimunkis are still to come, I have 6 in another tank and when I get about 6 more I will add them to the tank and likely call it a day. Here's an updated shot of the tank.

Thanks for the advice and yes I do know that. I've kept them before with success, I have a method for feeding them that mostly involves feeding after dark when everyone else has a full belly. So far so good, though if troubles do occur I do have other tanks that can accommodate them if need be.
