Have you looked at pacific blue eyes (pseudomugil signifer). They're one of the nano rainbows. People use them often in ponds because they don't eat frogs eggs. They look really cool in tropical conditions bright blue eyes and fancy fin work. I can get them cheaper then guppies!
In my tank I'm mixing swordtails with platies, very nice fish and not as boring as tetras, they like to pick at food that's leftover on the ground they pick at the rock, the plants, are actively swimming around, not like my tetras who just float and just sit there, my swordtails get along with my tetras, cleaner fish, ghost shrimp and RCS, and my very shy ralphael catfish, and my longfin cherry barbs c: and what's best is they are livebearers and easy to tell males from females
You can mix mollies with guppies and platies with swordtails, I like these a lot right now cause you can buy one male that you really like then just buy different females and wait for them to breed and hope you get something different and cool
I just bought these, so idk lol he has like 7-8 different females to breed with since he's the only male right now lol but I'm hopefully they get pregnant soon to see what comes out!
My brother is running something similar in a 10gal we have. Trying to convince him to convert it to a fully planted setup and get some shrimp, CPDs and threadfins....
