    Similar sized barbs are always a good choice, what other fish do you like? Certain tetras would work as well...my favorite are colombian tetras.

    besides the fish said above you can do neon/black neon tetras, platies, mollies, rasboras, dwarf gouramis.....ect...ect...the list goes on. cherry barbs are known to fin nip at times so what ever you chose to put with them just keep an eye on them.
