I have a 20 gallon tall tank with one male kribensis (a little over a year old, had him since he was a fry) and am wondering if I could add any more fish to my tank. His tank is unheated, but he seems to be thriving. Are there any good (semi-aggressive) tankmates I could add?

unheated? what kind of temps do you see in the tank? Is this a planted tank and/or is there anything to break up the line of sight?

I suggest getting a heater. It'll keep the water at a stable temp. Any other fish in there? Maybe a female krib?
 
I have artificial plants, and see temperatures from 70 to 82 degrees in the water. A female Krib is not the best option for me, because the babies would have nowhere to go... kinda limited space. I will look into getting a heater.
