I currently have a 70l tank. I have one male Molly and 6 corydora. Along with snails and a lot of shrimps!

I want to keep my stock low but I am worried my male molly my be lonely/ unhappy alone.

I had females in the past but they kept breeding and I had to make frequent visits back to the pet shop to keep stock within what was healthy for the tank.

Should I get another few males/ I dont want fighting but I also want him happy! Or is there another small fish that could work?
 
He's probably bored, and may soon try to mate with the Corydoras. But I doubt he's lonely is the sweet and innocent way - he is looking for females, and would hate another male in there. The tank is too small, and with a male, he is going to try for dominance, or murder.
