Hi,
I have a ten gallon with an Aqua - Tech 5-15, thats planted with Gold Ribbon, Wisteria, and Chain sword (Echinodorus tenellus)

Anyways would 6 Zebra/Leopard Danios, 6 Cardinial tetras, and 6 Ghost shrimp work for this tank?? Or should i get corydoras instead

According to AqAdvisor.com , the stocking is 124% for a 10gallon tank.

Just a note, the Gold Ribbon plant is not aquatic. Dracaena variegatus is often sold in the chain pet stores for a fish aquarium, but they will rot over time if submerged.

For a 10gallon tank, you might be unhappy with swords. Unless it is one of the microswords (looks like thin grass), Amazon swords grow HUGE and can easily fill a 10gallon tank. I've had them overtake 40gallon tanks!
