I've read that if fish are about the same size and shape they'll school together.

for tetras, you can follow the one inch per gallon rule

I'm not sure if they will school, i know they're compatible but i doubt they'll form a shoal all the time. If you go all tetras you can have a lot of them and it will make a stunning display

you'l have to rule out one of the tetra species as the tank is a little overstocked. You'll have to have good filtration and keep up with the water changes

As long as they're small tetra's (neon's, glowlights,etc), you could easily keep 20-25 in a 20gal.

Sorry, didn't realise you had Corys too. 6 Corys and 15 tetra's would be fine with regular maintence.

That'll be fine. Tetra's have very small bio-loads,and Corys are basically vacumn cleaners! With regular water changes 6 of each will be fine in a 20gal
