I think you could use harlequin rasboras but I'm not sure if they reach 4cm.

what is your tank? looking at your name is it a juwel 180?

Rasbora would be a nice fish to add, they are lovely when shoaling together.

Dwarf Neon Rainbows get to about 2in and the shoal well together and are easy to breed.

You could go with neon Tetra's or Cardinal Tetra's. I personally like Cardinal Tetra's better because they have brighter colors than the neon Tetra.

If you can find it, try Hyphessobrycon amandae, the Ember Tetra. they reach just 2 cm in length, and so you'll be able to have a decent sized shoal of them!

Here's a link:

Enjoy!

Cardinal Tetras would be nice with your Neons, or else get some Black Neons or Emperors.
