Some other changes to the tank aswell, removed the plastic strip from around the top of the tank, looks more bigger and open plus an extra 1" of viewing space at the top, got rid of the smaller 4ft led light felt it was just too bright, I am now just using the 6ft light. Trimmed a lot of the plants down and replanted the top which are growing well.
I'll be adding some darker sand and plant substrate as well this weekend.

It would be nice to get some baby whiptails.
Males may get a bit squabbly for territory, but your tank is 6' isn't it - not much of a space problem there.

Thanks Andy, just picked up a group of 8 Diamond tetras, nice looking fish. Not going to stock too heavy plan to get a couple of other groups of small fish, trying to avoid any more cichlids as the Bolivians are settled into there own little turf and the small female aggazzi runs the whole tank.
