Tank Additions

Hello everyone! I'm happy to announce that my very first tank just finished cycling the other day. I have a school of 10 neon tetras (rather beginner of me, I know) and 1 pleco. Just looking for any suggestions on what to add next. There's plenty of room in my 29 gal tank for more fish. Maybe another pleco and two angel fish? Is that suitable or should only one pleco roam a medium sized tank? If you think I could fit more than another 3 fish I'm very open to that as well. Thanks for reading this amigos.:cool:

Welcome :)

1 more thing to add.. no pleco should be in a 10g tank. 1 small pleco is enough in the 29, as mentioned common plecos and many other species will get too large for a 29g.

My pH is 7.4 and no exact numbers on my water hardness, but it is definitely hard. As Ammonia, Nitrites, and Nitrates, they are all at respectable levels. 73 degrees F at the moment.

Need exact numbers for ammonia and nitrites. 0 is the only respectable number. Nitrates need to be 20 or less.I would probably bump the temperature up a couple degrees to 75-76.
