Need new fish

[Matt Nace]

I need some new fish.

My planted tank need some new fish before eventually getting some Angels(if my plans don't change).
55 gallon
Right now it has and where they live
9 bronze corys--bottom
1 rapheal cory--bottom
8 cherry barbs--top to bottom
8 guppys--top to middle(might be going back to the 10 q-tank)
6 ottos(who are lazy ones!!)out of site,glass ,plants
6 SAE--plants, bottom
15 Ammano shrimp--bottom, plants
3 ghost shrimp-- plants

I was looking for a swimmer(no danios) or a pack of fish to stay together.

Nothing that gets too big. I don't care if the inches of fish outway the tank as most of the fish now are on the bottom, and they all swim and sit on one another anyway.

I thought about check barbs, but I don't know if they eat or nip at plants like the ruby and rosys did.

Any suggestions would be helpful.

How about some emperor tetras? They are really pretty and aren't so small that they might get eaten like neons and cardinals.
