Should I add or not

I have an 20 gallon with 4 panda corys, 1 pepper cory, 2 Pristella tetras, a gold Incan snail and I just added a tiny clown pleco which is supposed to get no bigger than 3.5 inches. I love this tank everyone is little (under 2 inches) snail is biggest - everyone gets along great but I was thinking about adding a couple more little fishies. Would harlequin rasboras get along with this group? Or would I be overstocking?

you would be safe to have around 5-6 inches more of fish but thats pushing the limit, if i were you i would add around 3 more pristella tetras so you get to see there proper shoaling behaviour

Thanx - we name all our fish (is that wierd?)
This is actually my 8 yr old son's tank so he gets all the credit for the names
the 5 corys are Fender, Gibson, Maison, Hoffner & Gretch and the snail is Gary
The newest addition is our little clown pleco Chester (after lead singer from LINKIN PARK)_
