Zebra danios should be fine there. Just keep a watch on the betta and the danios as the danios may be a little nippy but will generally leave other fish alone when kept in a group of 6 or more.
What plecos do you have? Panda cories and otos are different.
thanks for the help.
ok i dont know what kind of plecos i have but i will rehome them when they outgrow the tank. about the otos and panda cories in my lfs they say they are otos yet they look like panda cories, could i still put the cories in?
oh about over stocking do you think that
3 platies
3 swordtails
3 plecos (still young i will rehome them)
4 or 5 panda cories
1 betta
will be ok in a 29 gallon?
and maybe
4 or 5 danios (not sure yet i have to make sure the lfs stocks them)
thanks again

ok thanks, i think that my femlae platy will be more of a problem then my swordtail when it comes to food lol she is so greedy, but i know what you mean. do cories need alot of algae? or can they eat the fish flakes? (sorry about the dumb questions )
fish flakes would be fine for the corys. thats wat i give mine and they love them. just make sure that some make it to the bottom. your plans for your tank sound great! they should all get along just fine. :nicefish:
samw with my lfs. i havent seen danios there in a while. i had some once. but when i bought them i didnt think i would like them that much but they were really fun to watch! :lol: they werent too nippy either. i hope yours will be as entertaining as mine!
my cory doesnt really go to the surface at all in my tank. so i drop in about 3-4 shrimp pellets made by wardley. danios are fun fish, i have 4 gold and they are active all the time!
my cory surprised me when i brought it home. i expected it to swim around the bottom and pick up left over food. but it doesnt do that at all! it is everywhere. he is sooo fun to watch when he goes to the top of the water swims sideways with one fin out of the water like a dolphin! i didnt expect him to do any of that. i love corys.
