The ammonia level is at 0 and the Nitrate level is above 0 but below 5. I would say the nitrate level is at about 2 or 3.
If you have a nitrite reading then you are not finished cycling and shouldn't add any more fish.
If people with decades of fish keeping experience are telling you not to add more fish, and that your tank is not big enough for certain species, then I think you'd do better to ask why, rather than just disagree with them.
Even if you were fully cycled with perfect parameters and no overcrowding or territorial issues, you could still destroy all of that by adding more fish.

He said nitrate, not nitrite.
No, I gave one Nitrate reading. I just had to guess it with the color card I had.
