Fish Suggestion Wanted

I used to have a bookmark to a site that would let you punch in various
requirements, then give you a list of fish that met them. I can't find it,
though, so I am looking for fish suggestions.

I am trying to find fish that meet these criteria:
- small (1" or so)
- freshwater
- pH 7.8
- planted tank
- compatible with Corys
- not bottom-dwellers
- schooling would be nice, but not required

I would appreciate any suggestions.

Thank you,
Dave

Tetras are good schooling fish, neons or glowlights look real nice and are
in the 1" catagory. Also get along weel with the spotted corys that I have.

Harlequin rasboras make a colourful contrast to corys.

Thanks Frank, but I think maybe you're confusing me with another Elaine
because this is my first post on this group, although I've posted on
alt.aquaria.tropical.fish.hobbist a few times.

Anyway, the same to you and everyone else.

Hi, Frank. I got busy with schoolwork. But I'm back too. Welcome,
Elaine K!

Oh - and I totally agree with harlequins. They're tolerant of higher pH
and stick together in an unusually tight shoal.

I also think harlequins are nice looking fish.

Just curious, I tried to keep harlequins 5 or so years ago in my tank
with a PH of 8.2 and they would die off quickly (same with any type of
tetra). Are they finky about hard water? I didn't want to battle
hardwater with chemicals and the like, so I switched to Tanganykan
cichlids and they are extremely happy.

This is what I have in my tank right now, and they do go together
just fine. I'm thinking about adding a couple more rasboras, in
fact, to enlarge the shoal a little bit.
