I will post pics of the two unknowns soon.
I am actually trying to find somewhere for the Angel to go, it is pretty big, so I believe it is full grown, I am hoping the lfs will trade it in for some corries. I am going down this weekend to trade in the pleco.
If I up the number of barbs, remove the pleco and the glolites would I be able to get corries and if so what kind and how many?
Thanks again for all your help.
Edit: I am adding in pics of the unknown fish. They are pretty bad pics but for some reason I can't get good pics.

You will have room for 6-8 Cories once you get rid of the pleco. Trade the Angel in if you can when you get the Cories, just so the Badis will be safe.
I'd get more Glowlight tetras when you move them to the 10g to bring the group up to 6-7. You could add a centerpiece type fish in with them, like a Honey Gourami, Male Betta, or Dwarf Gourami.
You unknown fish looks like a characin for sure and most likely a type of tetra. I am leaning towards Penguin tetra, but the black stripe in all the pics I've seen of Penguin tetras go all the way to their tail fin and yours doesn't have that. I have looked through alot of tetra pics and don't see anything that looks like a better match.
If you haven't had them too long, the store you got them from might still have some. Try to get atleast 3 more if you can and try to see what the LFS has them named...or if you can get a scientific name, that would be better.
