Another idea is to have one larger school of tetras, for instance, 10 black widows or 10 red-eyes. I'm just throwing out ideas. Honestly though, sounds like a good plan.

I agree with Soluble, take out a loach and add to the Black Widow school. Another good fish instead of red-eyes, is the Lemon Tetra. They seem like a good fish, and they also have the red above their eyes.
