Stocking Help!

I am currently looking to add a couple of more fish to my tank. Been using my test kit for a couple of weeks now with the same results. I currently have a 36 gallon bowfront tank with a canister filter with a gravel bottom and a driftwood and rock setup inside. the current fish are as follows:

16 neon tetras
6 corydras
2 unknown chiclids

Here are my results from my test.

ph 6.5
am .0
rate is 5.0
rite is 0

I would like to add a couple of more fish. Im looking for some active colorful fish maybe a pair or trio that would occupy the mid to high level of the tank. Any suggestions?

How about all female or all male platies or mollies.

i would get those cichlids ID'd first...what you have is a nice group of fish...but would look better if you upped the shoal to neons to 20 and the corys to 10, this way all the fish would feel at home.
