1. Cardinal tetras!  *thumbsupsmiley* they have very nice combination of blue neon and red color, get as many as youcan  
2. Odessa barb, very active.
3. Rainbows, dwarf neon rainbows would be nice

Loaches and cories would be cool.  Try and see if you can sneak a Blue Ram in there too

and of course, angelfish. Attitude (not too much), interactive, and gorgeous to boot. With Cardinals, cory cats and lemon tetras would be stunning.
