Where Do i Go from Here?

I recently bought a twenty nine gallon tank and it has treated me well with a penguian 330 bio wheel filter.
The fish that are in there are One Rapheal Striped Catfish. And A Pleco.
What is my next move? what fish Should I add?

You could bump up the number of Danios -- they're happier in a shoal of 5 or more.

What kind of pleco do you have? If it's a common one, it will quickly outgrow that tank, plus the Raphael will get about 7 - 8".

I've Read Rapheal's Only Get 6-7 inches?
And IT is either a common one or a crocadile Pleco.
I Was Wondering if i Replaced The Plaeco With 2 BN pleco's would that be okay?

2 BNs would be fine in a tank that size.

I use Zebra Danios as dither fish myself, or neon tetras. Both should be kept in groups of 6 or more.

BTW, if you still have that Kissing Gourami, I'd get it a bigger tank or take it back. Those fish require a 55 gallon tank minimum. My gf and I are setting up the 55 again, and we'll be adding one of these...among my other wanted fish.
