apparently, im not overstocked, so i want to get more fish. currently i have 1 otto, 1 ranchu, 1 comet, 4 corydoras paleatus, and 4 corydoras aenues, what fish do you think i should get, i kinda wanna get a dwarf pleco or a small (1-2") black moor. so, um, what fish should i get?

Those fish you have now don't really go together well, otos and corys need warmer water whereas the goldfish do better in cooler water, mainly the comet.

And in order to help further with your new fish choice, we will need more info. like tank size.

But as long as your tank is large enough i would add a black moor and a BN pleco, after taking out the oto and corys.

its a 55G. how large a tank do the corys and otto need

I agree with Bree on this one. Your tank has a bit of an identity crisis. I would suggest getting rid of the goldfish and going purely tropical, or getting rid of the cories and such and going temperate.

I'm not entirely savvy on coldwater conditions, but I know fish such as white clouds, hillstream loches, and dojos prefer cooler water, although I'm not sure about their compatibility with goldfish. As far as tropicals, the sky is the limit on choices.

Your tank is overstocked and you have incompatible fish.
