Hard to tell but those look like bluegill rather than crappie? Either way, they get large....everything in there (aside from the Corys) get over a foot long. What size tank is it? Also, you have a mix if cooler water fish with some warmer water fish. I don't think I would add anything. You might actually want to rethink your stocking and remove either the cooler water fish or the tropical fish. Hope this helps.

Ok....they might be crappie...just hard to tell from the pic when they are young. The controlled temp really isn't the issue...it is that crappie like cooler water compared to corys and plecos. I am not sure how they will all do long term together if that makes sense?
