Help For A New Fish Keeper?

[JoeyWoodall]

Hi everyone.
I'm new too fishkeeping and recently bought my first fish tank. It is a juwel rio 180 with a internal bioflow 3.0 filter and heater. I have set my tank up with some live plants and natural looking gravel. As a first fish to introduce to my aquarium I have put in 3 Congo Tetra and 3 red eye Tetra. These have since been swimming around in a group all together. However I was wondering if anybody could maybe point in the right direction as to what fish I could add to this in the next few weeks to make my tank a bit busier. I want fish of around 4 or 5 inches when fully grown and with plenty of colour, any suggestions?
Thanks, Joey.

Have you looked at gouramis, maybe opaline or gold, theres plenty out there.

Thanks DS1, I had a look at the gouramis, I actually think they look really nice. But I was advised by the "expert" in the shop that they would attack all of my Tetra. The shop I went to was a pets at home. What sort of envoironment do the gourami's like? Is it a more planted or more of a rock filled tank? Also any more suggestions anyone?
