Thanks for the comments.

I have had barbs before and they do love to nip and play! That's part of the reason for a bigger school of them, they can play among themselves without bothering the other fish.

I still want to get some other plants that have been mentioned. The stores I went to didn't have some of the ones I wanted. I still want a java fern to put on the big piece of driftwood, some hornwort, and the dwarf hairgrass looks cool.

I have several large rocks that we have been collecting locally to use around our outdoor pond. I would like to arrange them with some plants in between them.

So far all the fish and plants are looking healthy.

pH 8 down .5-1
NH3 0
NO2 0
GH 26 up 4
KH 13 down 2

Looks like no cycling is happening, but the water is getting harder and softer?
