Do you wear two swimsuits at the swimming pool?

10:10

I go to the swimming pool 2-3 times a week. I am not a competition swimmer and I just swim for exercise.

The other day there was a group of girls training in the swimming pool and I noticed that most of them were were wearing two swimsuits, one on top of the other.

Does anybody here do it?

Why do you do it?


Its for drag. A lot of swimmers do that to slow them down so they have to work even harder to go faster. This makes them stronger for racing when they don't wear the top suit. If the swim suit on top was bigger than the one underneath, then it was for drag.

yes .obviously every one will wear a swimsuit while going to the swimming pool ,but i wear a men's swimsuit not girls & it depend on the place where the swimming pool is .If the pool is the house's bathroom then no one will wear a swimsuit and if the pool is outside

Lol, what? Why would they wear two swimsuits? That makes no sense... Odd tan lines much? Haha. But no, I don't do it. I don't understand why anyone would do it. Unless they were just trying to be odd and start a new 'trend'. Or get people to notice them. Cool name, heehee, mine is Coral (=

i wear 2 swimsuits when i play water polo. maybe there were water polo players who were taking a break from practice.it so if someone break your suit you are still wearing one, and polo suits are really tight and some times they show things.

It creates drag. Usually the suit on top is loser creates more friction and resistance so when you do end up competing and you only wear one tight suit you'll be stronger. =)

lycra swimsuits when they get old become a bit transparent so perhaps prolonging the life of a couple of old suits by wearing them together and avoiding any see-through? It is the credit crunch after all

Only if I plan on going in the pool. Otherwise no.

Yes, I do wear swim briefs under my trunks just in case.

What is the difference between Polyester-Lycra and Polyester PBT Swimsuits?

10:10

What is the difference between Polyester-Lycra and Polyester PBT Swimsuits? I want to order one online, but am not sure whether it is worth paying an extra $10 for PBT. I just don't know if there are any major differences (comfort, durability, etc).


Polyester-Lycra suits are usually more comforable, but they only last a month or two at the most depending on how much you swim. They tend to stretch out a lot and fade.

Polyester PBT suits can last about a year or two depending on how long the elastic lasts in the straps. They can be itchy the first few times you wear them, but after you wear them 8-10 times they are really comforable, don't stretch out at all and barely fade, even after you have been wearing it for a year.

Overall, I would recommend the PBT suits because they last so much longer.

pbt is a special polyester that is resistant to color fading and chlorine, so it should be more lasting.

Best place to find one of a kind swimsuits?

10:09

I always have trouble finding swimsuits I like. Any suggestions on where to go? I like string bikini style, retro or bright colors.

I've checked out Roxy, they always have cute ones, but where else should l look?


Hi there! Go to the Victoria's Secret website. I absolutely love their bathing suits, and they have all kinds of styles to choose from. Some are expensive, and some are a pretty good deal! I recently just purchased one from there.. Good luck! =)

i got mine at big 5 and they have really cute ones and alot od different ttypes

See if your city has a specialty store geared to swim suits. (Buffalo has the Buffalo Beach House). They will have all the latest fashions, and make sure you look good in one.

Target! I know it sounds cliche but it so works and they fit people really well too.

babyphat.com

I go to Jcpenny they have really cutes ones or Inland ocean or Swell

Are there any swimsuits for sale in August?

10:11

): alright. Well, I get to go to Cedar Point and Soak City next week, and I desperately need a new swimsuit.

I went shopping today to Target, Old Navy, Kohl's, and Fashion Bug, but none of those stores are selling swimsuits anymore.

Are there any strictly swimsuit outlets that you know the name of?

Are there any store clothing outlets that you KNOW are still selling swimsuits?


I would try sports/outdoors stores.

Sorry, that's all I can tell ya...

try wet seal and hot topic :)

I would try Victoria's Secret. You can buy them on-line and have them within 2 or 3 days. Plus, they are having a HUGE sale right now to prepare for fall.

J.C. Penny has designer bathing suits for $16.00. That is what I paid for one.

Pac Sun i know for sure. and maybe other places since summer is almost over and they are going to be getting rid of all their swimsuit stuff.

just look around :]

ask at e bay.

walmart

of course there are! Target isnt? hmm they should be, they sell year round. any who, pacsun, and wetseal definetly will, so check those out!

Hmm...I think Wal-Mart has swimsuits. Unfortunately it's not swim season. You should be able to find some, just not with a very wide selection. Sorry.

one word WAL MART!! there hav like all there swimsuits on sale and clearance and they are super cute trust me you wil find sum

If you have a Marshalls in your area, I actually picked up a swimsuit there today. And it was $15 and really cute. They had a decent selection...

ummmmmm... i dont KNOW,but i think JCPENNEY would prolly have some.. or try walmart?

Everywhere! Major sales online on JCrew and Victoria's Secret!!!! Catch- no returns so you have to know you size. No luck? Try the online department store sites like Macy's, JC Penney, Nordstrom and Bloomies. Other cute stores to try: AMerican Apparel (for the edgy suit wearer) and Alloy, PacSun and ShopBop. You'll find one!

delias

alot of their swimsuits are on sale too.

you could always buy online and probably get a better price that way anyways.

Tj Maxx is having a crazy sell, I was just there yesterday, and Marshalls had plenty left. I believe I saw a clearance rack Ross. If you have a Factory 2u, check there.

try a surf shop or a diving shop.. soemthing liek that also.. soem stores will have them on clearance but the selection will be very small.

Of course! And now is actually a good time to purchase one because a lot of places put them on clearance so you can get a great buy on one! Try www.delias.com or www.alloy.com Good luck!

Try dept stores they still have them on sale or Victorias secret website or speciality stores like 'Everything but Water'

Well, I'm pretty sure BIG 5 sporting goods has swim suits year round, but they're not really "good looking" Here's their website http://www.big5sportinggoods.com/ or you can try any clothing store's website and click on the catalog then bargains. They usually have swimwear there. But hurry! Good luck!

Why do girls wear underwear like swimsuits at the beach or the pool?

10:12

why do girls not wear shorts at the beach/pool?

I've been wondering why we (girls) don't wear shorts at the beach or any swimming pool like guys do?

Why do girls prefer wearing swimsuits that look like bra and panties instead?

Don't you feel like you are wearing your underwear at the beach/pool?

They do look the same except sometimes the fabric is not the same.

I suppose bikinis or one-piece swimsuits are sexier than shorts but I wanted to know what you girls think.


There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with wearing a two piece bikini. The problem is the poor judgement that many ladies have when selecting their swimsuit. It is good practice to make sure that your bikini is lined. Unfortunately, with stores like Walmart selling cheap swimwear many girls wear these cheap swimsuits and get out of the pool wet with a see through bikini. Check out http://WorldSwimwear.com for some quality, but inexpensive swimwear.

It is all about attracting the opposite sex. If we all wore full body one piece swimsuits like the Muslims then we would look real stupid would we not Or we would have traveled back about 100 years when all swimmers were required to wear FBS?

Now the the bikini is the extension of the Bra and panties that is why there was such a brouhaha at the time when women FIRST wore them in public. Today men and women love the freedom of the bikini.

Some women like the obese should never where bikinis nor should the fat young girls wear low slung jeans or swimsuits but then who really pays attention to what you look like if you are in fashion.

ha thats a really good question I totally get what your talkign about.

I work at a pool. I see the girls coming in.

I guess its just that sexy, flirty gets attention look when a girl wears a bikini. Especially when teen girls are trying to attract guys.

Its the way it makes her feel. Some girls do prefer shorts though.

Anyway maybe thats just me!!

bye

cause we dont want to look lik sluts lol

but ter is some ppl who wer nothing at da beach

nd u dont want to swim wil naked ppl

Do some pools require women to wear one-piece swimsuits rather than bikinis?

10:10

A friend mentioned to me that a number of public pools require women to wear one-piece swimsuits rather than bikinis. Do such pools really exist?

I mean, surely it's a bit old-fashioned to have rules like that? I know the bikini was banned from some pools when it started to become popular back in the 50s, but surely we've progressed since then?


I would still swim at it cuz all I wear is one piece and girls are sexy in them.

I don't think there are any pools that regulate that rule anymore though.

yes lots of pools are doing know days becouse of all thats going on i thick somer man started going to pools just to see young girls

I do not know of pools that do that, and I work at a local pool, but I know at my church's events it's required, for modesty reasons.But, I don't know why pools would make that rule, although I think it would be a good idea.

I've seen pools that require one piece suits - thing is, it's optional. One piece top only or one piece botoms only.

never heard of such a thing, and I don't know how they would go about enforcing such a rule without ending up in a court battle.

Where can I find a good variety of swimsuits?

10:10

Where can I find a good variety of underwire swimsuits? I have an ample chest and would like a nice looking swimsuit. I recently lost weight so I haven't really had a swimsuit in 8 years or so. Everything I have found in stores that is cute doesn't have any support on top and thats just not going to cut it with me. I will probably want a tankini or a one piece. Thanks!!


i would say victoria secret but if u r on a budget go to jcpenny they have a wide variety and they have pretty bathing suits with support for your chest!

ignore Gemma's answer. most of those companies sell tiny tiny bikinis. speedo might be worth a shot though. the site cyberswim.com has got amazing suits, called miracle suits, that you can can check out based on what you want them to do. support, slim tummy, elongate legs...ect. and they have a variety of one-pieces, two-pieces and tankinis. congrats and good luck

Where can i find cute but affordable swimsuits?

10:11

Im going on a roadtrip to San Antonio and i need at least 3 more swimsuits. Can you please give me store names or websites. I really appreciate it. Thanks.


Target or Old Navy

i went to grocery shopping at target and saw their swimsuits they are cute

www.fitnesssportsstore.com have some pretty cute ones at affordable prices.

I have forever been trying to find a cute swimsuit that is affordable and in that price range...

It's ridiculous how some are like 349438534958 $ for just the top.

I got mine at JC Penny's and Every time I go swimming someone compliments my swim suit.

Have fun in San Antonio!!!

-Terri

Try discount stores, like Name Brand Clothing. NBC is stocked with $3 swimsuits.

You could also try Marshalls, or TJMax.

Some cities have outlet stores, which always carry affordable clothes. Dillard's rack or Nordstorm's rack are outlet stores of the main department store, and whatever did not sell or is out of season goes there.

With online shopping, your best bet is to buy things when they are out of season. However, there are sites that sell affordable stuff. Alloy comes to mind.

Good luck in finding your swimsuits.

Abrecrombie and Fitch, Hollister, Ralph Lauren.

Try American Eagle and Old Navy

walmart

What is your price range? Then, I'll come back and edit. Oh, and do you want one-piece suits or bikinis?

I think target. You can try their website (target.com)

they have pretty cute stuff at prices that make my me happy.

I got cute cheap bikinis at old navy and target. Target has a lot to choose from and a lot are really cute, I was surprised.

Here's some ideas...

-Try outlet stores, you can find stuff that's normally expensive for under 50 dollars. I found a J. Crew swim suit for only 20 dollars!

-Alloy.com has sooo many cute suits and they're about 20 dollars per top or bottom.

-Delias.com has lots of bright and summer bathing suits that are inexpensive.

-Aeropostale has inexpensive, basic suits.

-Old Navy is great for swimsuits because they come in all colors for only approx. 20 dollars each!

-Target has a lot of cheap swimsuits with fun patterns.

-Also, American Eagle has some nice swimsuits and I believe that they're fairly inexpensive.

Old Navy. Each peice is like $12. I think that is even cheaper than target and they don't look like walmart crap.

What are some good beach clothes and swimsuits?

I will be living at a beach for the next few years. What wardrobe staples should I have? Where could I buy them? Also, where can I get cute swimsuits that don't look like they're made of dental floss?

Thanks!

http://WorldSwimwear.com

The style sorta depends on which coast you are living on. The West is different than the south, etc.. so I say get staple items that you are comfortable in.

For beginners I suggest the following, now keep in mind I lived in Brasil, Los Angeles & Norway all by the coast.

1. Cute pair of comfortable sandals.

2. Beach bag (something durable, I prefer the bamboo styles)

3. Sunglasses

4. Cute summer dress, does not matter if long or short, just get your favorite pattern and colors.

5. Swimsuit

http://WorldSwimwear.com

I would say that should get you off to a great start. Here are my favorite swimsuits, these are fully lined, have top support and over all nice quality. I selected the non- dental floss styles.

Good luck, I am not sure what your swimsuit style is, so I suggest to go onto the website and check it out yourself.

you can find adorable swimsuits at forever21.com, urbanoutfitters.com

try wraps and stuff like that

also cropped boyfriend jeans and a light t-shirt

they sell them pretty much anywhere

fashionable sandals, you can also find those at urbanoutfitters.com

oh! and sun hats! also at forever21!

I reccommend victorias secret they have a website and most malls have the store you will need stock of beach towels, sunhat, sun glasses and sun dresses and flip flops

I wonder what happens to the swimsuits & lingerie that models have worn on the catwalk ?

10:10

I have always thought about this: its now a question of hygiene after models have worn clothes that got in contact with their genital area. Does the designer give them for free after the show?

I would also like to know,how the women models,deal with menstruation if they have to walk the runway in lingerie or swimsuits. They always look safe & confident to me?? I ask that bcoz not all women can wear tampons. Does Victoria Secret choose a show date when all the girls are not menstruating?


I would guess that they get to sell them, inasmuch as the models likely wear protective shields.

Same for the ones having their periods, if they cannot wear a tampon, I am sure that they wear protective shields, or so my wife informs me. As you can tell, I am no expect, but the question interested me.

I think the same answer applies to actresses who appear in skimpy underwear that could show too much.

It depends on the item. They are definitely not going to give away their 1million bathing suit or lingerie.. Some of it is given to some models, but most of it just goes back to the designer. Many times they will re-use for fitting purposes, or they get rid of it.

http://www.cafepress.com/stripperstop

umm i think they give them everything they wear for the other question i dunno

There are safe methods which you think are great problems and the same are easily solved by consulting a gynecologist

I've done lingerie shows before where we have gotten to keep the clothes, but most often the clothing stays with the designer or company. Flesh colored g-strings are ALWAYS worn when modeling lingerie or swimwear for hygeine issues.

i belive the girls/blokes who model the under ware/swimsuits get first chance to buy the garments at a reduced price.

good question!

i would say they keep it

We do swimwear shows and photoshoots for our own swimwear line at Tropi-Ties Swimwear. These swimsuits are usually prototypes, so they need to go back to the design room, where they are used to make final adjustments to the patterns and prepare the styles for production. If a model requests something for herself, we can sometimes giver her a suit later on. The girls always wear some sort of hygenic protection and there are also panty shields inside the suit.

The most of the times they will be given to the models!

The models are usually given this merchandise.

Why are the olympic uniforms in swimsuits, trunks and gymnastic gear so revealing?

10:10

I know that some of the swimsuits are high for mobililty in the water and also includes the gymnastic uniforms, but why do they have to be that way? You can literally see a person's butt almost hanging out of their uniforms. That's not a good sight for people that have weak minds like child predators if you know what I mean.


Well it's not like any of the swimmers or gymnasts are hideously ugly or morbidly obese covered in cellulite so I don't find it that bad.

The swimmers and gymnasts' uniforms are designed to be lightweight so they can move freely without heavy clothing weighing you down (imaging swinging up on the high bar with a baggy shirt flapping all over the place or trying to win a gold medal in swimming whilst being slowed down by a saggy pair of board shorts.)

Also it's not that revealing, the men gymnasts generally all wear leotards with striupp pants or leggings (which is a shame) and the swimmers don't even have their chests exposed (expect for maybe after the race when they pull the swimsuit/wetsuit down).

The gymnast's leotards aren't that horrible either, it would just be so much harder to compete if everyone was trying to be modest.

I assume the uniforms worn by gymnasts and other participants are designed with form and function in mind, but I feel like some also have an eye turned toward tradition. I'm an 18 year old guy, so of course when I'm watching volleyball I can't help but notice that some of the women are attractive, and there's nothing wrong with that or what the competitors wear. I live down in Long Beach and I know how hot it gets playing beach volleyball, the women down at the sand courts on Manhattan beach dress pretty much like the pros, they wear bikinis.

They could probably make less revealing outfits for the female gymnasts but it seems like that style is a tradition now, either way I'm just not buying the argument that having 16 year old girls in outfits that resemble one piece swimsuits is so bad. Child predators are going to be child predators whether they change gymnastic uniforms or not, I don't think the olympics have any affect on that, besides, most of the gymnasts are legally adults(at least for the USA). If a child predator wanted a view of girls in similar outfits they could just go down to the local pool during the summer instead of watching NBC, I think you're making way too huge a deal out of athletic uniforms when there's really nothing to get alarmed over.

i assume the uniforms are also made for easy movability.

i don't know about the girls in gymnastics, but some of the guys will wear pants or shorts. (which is a disappointment for me. lol there was a cute german gymnast on last night, but he had a pair of shorts on)

personally, i disagree. i mean, if the guy swimmers had boobs, then i would agree, but other than that...

Yeah i noticed that with volleyball and gymnastics. I really have no idea why they would do that.

sex sells doesn't it. How many MEN will tune into volleyball for the beach? Think about it.

What are those swimsuits the female swimmers are wearing?

10:09

I was wondering what kind of swimsuits the female swimmers are wearing in the Olympics. Also do they have any in smaller sizes because I'm not a tall person therefore I don't wear those huge sizes. Your help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.


They are wearing the lazr but im sorry to tell you you cannot buy one of those suits they have decided that they will be only selling them to dealers who are willing to buy hundreds of thousands of them at at time and they cost over $900, so it will be very rare to find one and they wont be selling them for months.

those are speedo lzr suits they go for about $1000 and last for about seven swims. If you are serious about getting a swim suit like that I suggest swimming fast so that they will offer you one.

a lot of them are wearing speedo lzr... and I think they come in size 28 and up! although they are like $550.00...that's A LOT of money.

i swam at junior nationals a few weeks ago and they offered me a lzr racer which is what they are wearing im 5 '3 and weigh 106. go on the speedo website! or ebay if your looking for a cheaper one. i wear size 24 :)

How to remove musty chlorine smell from swimsuits?

22:35

My kids' swimsuits smell awful. I've tried vinegar, Chlor Out, borax, baking soda, OxyClean, and lemon juice, but nothing has helped. What else could I try, aside from burning them?


I've always washed my suit in woolite after every use. I don't know if it'd take the smell out if it's stuck in the fabric, but my suit doesn't smell like the pool in the slightest.

Try rinsing swimsuits in Sodium Thio Sulfate (AntiChlor).

This chemical has neutral pH and will neutralize Chlorine residue on any fabric (without damaging it).

There are many suppliers in the US or just Google suppliers & chemical name.

Good luck!!

wash it. detergent reacts with the chlorine smell. if not line dry them.

btw the "vinegar" and "lemon juice" probably added to the smell.

Fill up the sink with water and Fabric softener. Let them soak for a day, ring them out then hang in the sun to dry.

Use Woolite, and hand wash it.

What are the disadvantages in full body swimsuits?

22:22

Tell me more about full body swimsuits, why, who. Tell me about anything like diseases that could increase the risks if worn.


They are only usually suited to one stroke because on breastroke, you can't have something that it is really tight around the upper legs, etc. Also, they take a while to get in and out of you, and the really good expensive ones are really tight, and can sometimes stop you breathing or give you stomach cramps.

Most of the answers I have seen so far for your question seem to be referring more toward the suits that offer thermal insulation suit as wetsuits which can be cumbersome for swimming. But there are full body lycra suits that snorkelers use. See the link below that would not hinder swim strokes. Snorkelers use then for protection against U.V. rays and accidental contact with marine life such as jellyfish. They allow full range of motion. The lycra suits are easy to get on and to takeoff as well.

As far as any diseases? Unless you have an allergy to lycra products then it should not be a problem as the lycra suits are machine washable.

Full body swimsuits sort of impairs your range of motion in your legs and arms. There are really no risks for diseases if you wear them. I would say the only risk is overheating if you are wearing one in warm water. I would recommend wearing a full body suit in cold water.

Swimsuits?

21:30

I am wondering what the difference between "speedos" and swimsuits are. I am 14 and not sure which ones I should buy. Any help is greatly appreciated.


Trunks are better the speedos....girls dont like guys in speedos

NEVER everrr do speedos. they're those tight swimming things guys wear that are shaped like briefs. I prefer board shorts. go to pacsun.com and go see their boardshorts

Do Asian girls look good in swimsuits?

18:28

I'm sorry, but I just don't think that they do. Most East Asian girls are too pale for swimsuits. I'm not trying to talk bad. I'm Asian myself, and I think that Asian girls are some of the cutest out there. They just don't look good in a two piece bikini.


I don't think looking pale has anything to do with it. Most of the girls of Asian decent that I have seen have little or none up top and many have boyish type figures which is not conducive to a two piece bathing suit or a bikini. A two piece suit does not look good on a flat chest.

YES!!!!! i am asian and i look faboulous in a bikini!!!!!

i think they look great

Asian girls look good, period.

I think they absolutely do - and so do all other girls !!

Asian girls are usually skinny enough to look good in a two piece.

I think you are wrong, and could have low self esteem.

Asian girls do look good in swimsuits! It just depends on body shape and color & style of bikinis!

anyone with a good body can look good in a swimsuit, you dont need to be tan.

well that's why some get tans?

and that's what you think.

i barely get pale, but even if i was, your opinion wouldn't stop me.

apparently my boyfriend isn't complaining.

every girl looks good in swimsiuts. the beauty of the world is in a womans smile :)

Just having big boobs and a nice figure (regardless of race) looks good in a bikini.

You are a racist idiot and don't deserve a girlfriend.

Anyone can look good in a swim suit, even with a pale skin, especially if they wear a color that flatters them. Pale skin often looks good with black, dark red or royal blue.

I'm Asian too!

I think it REALLY depends on your body type figure, look at Nicole Scherzinger, she's Asian with a really nice figure :)

How did the swimsuits for swimmers in the olympics change over time?

01:02

I have to write an essay on this PLEASE tell me stuff about it....thanx


Swimsuits have changed as new materials have been introduced.

Swimsuits in the mid-20th century were made of wool jersey knit. Then came nylon, which dried much faster, was very durable, but was not stretchy. The most form-fitting designs required a zipper up the back.

Lycra suits came along in the 70's (first worn in Montreal games in '76). For about 20 years, the focus was on making the swimsuit smaller, tighter fitting, and covering less skin.

Since then, new materials have focused on minimizing water absorbtion and flow control. The focus is more on covering more skin.

the suits that they wear are a special fabric called fastskin made by speedo

first it asborbs less water making u weigh less and then it reduces friction less friction faster u go

then it is designed to help water just flow off of it

only problem over time the fabric becomes less like that it will slowly take more water but it is still a good suit

go to speedo.com and read about fastsin

They have covered more skin over time.

Darn Americans are getting too modest.

A lot of the information found out by swim suit designers was found by studying sharks in the ocean. The shark's skin has the same elements swimmers want when going through the water. To find more you can look at iTunes podcasts [Speedo Make Waves].

When the olympics first introduced swimming people swam nude. then they developed the first swim suits (dont know wat they were made out of. in the twentith century speedo came in and inveted a low profile suite they later developed the jammer and then the fast skin whic is worn by mostly all olympic swimmers today. Nike has there version of a fast skin to which provides less drag doesnt asorb mch water and is very tight. swim caps are also used by todays swimmers and of coarse goggles. sorry i didnt know really how to word this hope it helps.

They were all basicly made out of the same matierial then Mark Andrew a consaultent for speed invented a fabric in 1996 that they launched in 1997. It was of coarse the Aquablade. Then speedo decided to try to mimic fishes skins and shark was the only fish they tried and the results they god were awsome. ( Fastskin, Fastskin FS 2) then they found another matierial that is better that that. Fastskin Pro.) And now the LZR racer is basicly the same thing exept the patches helps muscle movment so ther are even better. Thats a basic history of it.

Which fish swim at the top of the tank and what swim at the bottom?

21:17

I want to put some small fish (as small as possible and no more than 3 inches full grown) in with my little tetra (they are neon tetra and rosy tetra). So I want to make my tank pretty and add some fish that swim on the bottom and some that swim on the top that will also get along with me tetra. Thanks!


If you have tetras you should keep them in groups of 5 or more each. That's fine for the neons in a 10 gallon tank but rosy tetras are gonna get too big. If you can take the rosys back to where you got them see if they'll trade them for neons. A big group like 10 or 12 neons will swill all over the tank.

If you don't want all the same thing, you still need to get at least 5 neons and maybe 3 dwarf corys that stay at the bottom and a couple male guppies or a male betta for the top. Don't believe the bull some people will tell you that bettas will kill all the other fish in the tank. They only fight with other bettas and fish that look like bettas, so corys and neons would be okay.

If you have the right amount of both species of fish in your tank (6+ each) your tank is already fully stocked. I dont recommend adding any more stock to the ten gallon.

However, if you MUST add fish, add around 5 corydoras of the same species, they are a shoaling fish and need a group. Do your research smaller species such as panda corys are about they only thing that will fit comfortably in a ten gallon tank. Also these fish need a soft or smooth substrate due to the sensitivity of their barbels. They will cruise the bottom of the tank and keep it clean, supplement that with algae wafers and or sinking pellets.

your tetras obviously swim wherever they want but fish that swim on to or bottom are

TOP Dwelling fish

-Upside Down catfish

-Guppies (swim middle to upper lvls)

BOTTOM

Snails (get different colors so they dont over populate)

-Corydoras(cory for short) catfish

I can't name that many that grow 3 inches or less, im sorry.

Not that many top or bottom dwelling fish are compatible with neon tetras.

fish swim wherever they want :P

get some small placoes
