I currently have the following in a 28 Gallon tank:

4 Platys
3 Cherry barbs
2 Kribs (Juveniles, Male is 2 Inches, female 1 and a half)
1 bristlenose (3 Inches)
2 German rams
3 Corys
2 peacock gobys (Juveniles less than 1 inch)

Do you think I have some more room? They are all quite small, but I appreciate the Kribs will get quite a bit bigger. I Was thinking of maybe some Angels x2? Any suggestions?
 
I wouldn't add another pair of cichlids to that tank. You'd be over-stocked eventualy anyway and the kribs would probably end up harassing the angels if they decide to breed. If you realy want to add something, a couple more cories might be wise - once the cichlids you have in there start breeding, they are going to get pretty aggressive and territorial - especialy the kribs. Your cories would benefit from being in as large a group as possible to discourage the cichlids from attacking or harassing them.
 
Angels grow to about 6" so you would be adding 12" of fish. i would second the seggestion of maybe increasing the number of corys say to maybe 5 or 6.
 
Thanks for the advice.

Ok, I will leave the angels, they get too big, how about some gouramis? What types would work in my tank?
