Ignore my post count, it means I waffle too much,
More of the same tetras you have, 4 more neons and 3 more cardinals, though I would be tempted to take them to the lfs and trade them for that female/male D gourami you want as you would be pushing your stocking level with them all.
[EDIT: As for the peacocks, yes you need more I THINK, I got 5 origionally when the lfs got a suprise batch, 2 died soon after introduction and the aggresion shown between the remaining 3 is pretty high, how are your 2 doing? More should spread the agro a little]

awww...i couldnt get rid of them.... there my little buddies..plus some idiot could come along and buy them and kill them grrrrr.... 
ok me thinkin this... get another female goby so i have 3 gobys.....get 3 of the dwarf botias cos they are wittle....
ive just thought of sumthing the man in the lfs sed...he sed that my peacocks would be able to eat small neons.....so thats not good...if true.
edit - my gobys get on fine together..theres hardly any agression between them..the only thing that happens is she gets fat which i pressume is eggs and he sorta eggs her around a bit to find a spot i guess that all that ever happens between them..there just nice to each other lol!

Your guy at the lfs does not know peacocks, they could not eat a neon if you cut it up for them first 
Really, they don't get much bigger than a neon.
Sounds like you have a M/F pair of peacocks. Provide lots of small caves and hideaways and you may get fry.

so would adding another female be ok? itll mean he has two to chose from?!
hehe i didnt think they could actually eat one unless they have extremly big mouths that i just cant see lol! ( or mayb he ment one that was like a fry lol)

If you have a male female pair, then nope. How big are they, and look at thier foreheads, if one is more pronounced than the other, then thats the male. If they are a M/F pair then leave them as is, unless dwarfs or lucky62 know different (they have kept them longer than me, may be worth searching thier posts).
