Finally the day has come.
I'm emptying my 15G for some new fish.
All the plants will stay as they are, but I need some new fish.
Having kept livebearers, cichlids for a couple of years,
I'd like to try something new.
I'd love to have a school of tetras or barbs.
Photos of my tank can be seen here
Any suggestions?

You could try having a school of tetras, a shoal of cories, and a dwarf gourami. That tank would be pretty colorful (with the gourami and tetras), and there would be a lot of activity at the bottom, since cories are very active fish.

Go down to your lfs and see what interests you. That will help you with stocking ideas.

That's a nice looking tank

Harlequin rasboras are colorful and good schoolers. Lots of options as far as tetras; depends what's available to you locally and what you like

Centerpiece...honey gouramis are another good choice. Cherry barbs do well in pairs. They'd add some color and would work as a centerpiece in that size tank. A German or Bolivian ram if you've never kept either of those.

Maybe a trio of kuhli loaches for the bottom?
