I have a 55 gallon tank with 2 silver dollars, 4 rosy barbs, 2 bala sharks, 1 blue spotted pleco, and 2 ADFs. I am kind of bored with having so few fish, but I do not know what else to get, and what is compatible. I plan on getting a bigger tank or a new tank once the bala sharks grow, but for now I would like to add a couple more fish. Any suggestions -_- ? Thanks.
 
First off, I'd suggest adding fish that you already have: silver dollars and the barbs, since they like to school, and 2 and 4 fish, respectively, isn't enough for schooling.

Since you have aggressive fish, I'd suggest some sort of SA cichlid that can take the aggression (SA, since your fish like water around low-neutral pH, and African cichlids generally require a higher pH and hardness). Might also want to look into loache sif you want activity on the bottom.

Edit: I didn't see that this was in a non-fish forum. I gave you fishy suggestions, since the title says "fish", but were you or were you not looking for fish?

Yes, I am planning on adding more Silver Dollars. I have one male barb and 3 females, should I add more females or males as well? What kinds of SA cichlid would you recommend, I don't really know much about them. And I think I posted this in the wrong place lol. But I'm just worried that my frogs will get eaten by something bigger? If so, I can move them into my neon tetra and zebra danios tank.
