So my dwarf gourami passed away this morning he hadn't been doing to hot for the past month or so. And I was just curious about what the community thought a good replacement for home would be.

My current setup is a 20gallon high with an ac50 and I maintenance weekly and bi weekly if I feel so inclined and by how my water tests turn out.
I have a few plants some floating and an Anubis.
My fish are
1 gold gourami (female)
4 peppered Corey
5 zebra daino

Tank is cycled and everything reads zero when I test oh and I try to keep my ph at 7.0

Thanks in advance

Might be fun to add more corydoras and danios. You could have significantly larger schools of each.

A single dwarf cichlid like a german or bolivian ram, or a krib, or an apisto, might work well.
 
I agree with increasing the sizes of the shoals!

Moar danio! Maybe a two kind mix. They'll still shoal together, so pretty!
 
Since you already have a gourami in there, do not get another gourami species. I will second getting a single kribensis cichlid. I have never had a single one be combative to the community, and they are hardy and quite charming little buggers.
 
K so my thoughts are this

A female betta and adding another member to each school or to just one to one of the schools
Or
The dwarf cichlid thing.... Maybe a pair idk
