They do seem to like to school at times. Ours will ignore each other for hours, then like cories, have a 'meeting'. lol

Yes the research I have done seems to be contradictory... but I don't want to take any chances... I love this little fish and want to keep him happy so if that means getting him some friends I will. I wanted to make sure though because he actually seems so happy I don't want to change that.
Getting more will probably mean sacrificing some other additions as I am probably getting very close to my bio-load limit... but I'm happy to do that to make my existing fish happy. I am worried about having enough algae though... I will definitely have to supplement I think because I also have a BN pleco and two mystery snails in a 20G. I'll go get them and try some zuchini.

I have one in my 10g...had 2 but the other died. And he has been living happily for a couple months. He still hangs out on the glass. I've been meaning to get another, but haven't gotten around to it.
My 3 in the 29g do hang out alot. They aren't always together though.
I don't think they are schoolers...more like shoalers (like cories). They don't necessarily swim around together (in a school), but they do enjoy the company of their own.
I would add another. They don't add much to the bio-load, so go for it. Feed them some algae wafers...mine love them! They even eat shrimp pellets every now and then.
