THanks..I love them ..They are completly spoiled little brats. The eat from our hands and you can't even walk past their tank without them following you.

Nice! Do you have to pay with your credit card?? isn't it like your bidding for a plant of fish over the internet? If it is true, i wouldn't bother getting a plant or even a fish that might not even last on it's trip to my home.

Unless it's from a store that they have a plant place that they grow them. I can't trust regular people and their plants because my friend bought a plant from someone over the internet, the plant was dead.

Aquabid is just like Ebay. People put what they are selling up for auction and you buy it. I've bought, fish, plants, filters and snails off aquabid. All were great.. I use my paypal account, just like ebay, I swore off credit cards after I got them all paid off so I use my checking account. Paypal is like a middle man that keeps all your account info safe..They are basically like a bank..I've had great luck with aquabid. It's a personal choice whether you use it or not but I love it. It gives you a chance to buy from other hobbyist and support them.

The driftwood in your tank is wonderful. Did you get it from aquabid, too?
It's so hard to find big "root tangles" like that. Luv it!

Your angels must be in heaven with all that space.
What other tank mates are you planning on adding? More of the same type corydora or different ones?
Schooling mid-water fish?

Sorry for the 50 questions, guess I'm dreaming about a tank like yours.

I plan on getting some more peppered cories so they can have a nice big school. I really love the Clown Loaches. I'm seriously considering getting 3 or those. For a middle swimming schooling fish I'm going to go with some kind of rainbow. They have some really neat ones on aquabid right now.

Great, thanks! I'll check it out.

Oh, nice Such little sweeties.
I've been having fun with a school in my 90G.

Yes, your tank could hold them nicely.
For your consideration, a smaller option is Botia striata (or zebra loach). They are gentle like the clowns with interesting patterns, but only get 5-6" max.
Like the clown loach and cories, like to be in groups.

Gotta love the rainbows. There are tons to choose from.
Lately, I've been particular to the Iritherina werneri (or Glossolepis incicus) :

and Melanotaenia Praecox (or dwarf neon rainbowfish) :

Guess you need to take your koi angels colors into consideration while you choose.
The picts were taken from this website and may help you choose the colors you like:
