me no expert , but i feel that 4-5 cories would be nice enough for your tank , and the tetras is to make your tank more colourful

my 2cents .

Just my 2 cents worth of comment. Since its a 1.5ft tank, i believed the filter is a hanging type or internal filter. I suggest fishes that don't poo so much. small breeds like your tetra that don't eat too much too.
