I'm re-starting a 10g planted tank with a nano natural scape, and I'm looking for a small school of colorful fish.

I got my eyes set on Chili (aka Mosquito) Rasboras - these little guys look amazing  8)
Are they easy to keep, and breed ?

What else would you recommend for this tank ?
- 10g
- heavily planted but mostly small covering plants
- no co2
- ph 7 - 7.5
- gh 1 - 5.0
- AC20 filtration

I really like Danionins, very cool looking and they are super tiny to boot.

I had some Scarlet Dwarf Rasboras that I'm sure weren't even 3/4", maybe closer to 1/2". Great colour & lots of personality.
Of course there's always Badis badis if you like attitude with colour.

True !

I didn't know there was a distinction between Danios and Danionins.

I have a list of cool Danios, Tetras and Rasboras to look for next time I hit the LFS :)  Only room for 1 school in my 10g though, this will be a difficult choice !

I'll post them up tonight and see what you guys think  ;)
