There are many different species, try googleing some of them and see which would be suitable.

They are quite active zippy little things. I have 3. Maybe ask on the killi section Big C there knows a lot about them.

I take it you're trying to find something nice to stock in that tank you got first? I was gonna get a 28l hexagonal from ppets at home for my first tank but I'm glad I didn't, you can't keep much in there

have you considered a male Betta? They are stunning fish and there is a breeder who sells them in some stunning colours. maybe you could plant it up nice and have a male Betta and some Shrimp/snail in there?

I bought one from here take a look at the males

The males are sooooo stunning. They are wonderful fish. Obviously you could only have one in there as they are fighter fish but one in a nice planted tank with some shrimp would look fantastic I think.

I only have a 60 litre myself and find it too small now I've gottten into it. I just have some platys, Cardinal Tetra, female Betta, my plec and the killis and a couple of snails. And I am overstocked tbh. I've been looking at bigger tanks.
