I am thinking abot getting some striata loaches as well... are they fine with Clown Loaches and Cory's?

Should be fine, all the fun of clown loaches but dont outgrow your tank. Get several, they are a very social fish (like the clowns) and like to play together.

I have some in a tank with a small pleco and neons, no problems.

Your tank is looking very cool, especially for the cost. Once you get a full school of tetras in there it will be very impressive 8)

Cheers
