Hi fishgirl.IMO that looks grand,the angels and kribs,if breeding,may get a bit territorial,but other than that,it looks ok.What aren't you sure about with the sterbais?Lovely fish and one of the hardier corys. Tetras pretty much comes down to personal choice,but a few are fin-nippers,like serpaes,but I havnt had much experience with them.I do have yellow finned congo tetras,which are very nice in a shoal,they dont actually look much like the standard congo tetra,more of a slim silver body with yellow fins.Not the easiest to get hold of though.

it sounds good but i think you will have a problem with kribs and corys both are bottom dwellers and kribs get very territorial when breeding thats the only problem i see.

If you are going with Tetras it is best to get one type instead of diffevent mixing them.

Hi fishgirl i like you're stocking plans. Are you going for a planted tank or not? Rummynose tetras are beautifull fish as well as black neons which look great in a planted tank.
