That's about 30 gallons.

The aquarium is a Lido 120 and is already going to have the following fish:

6 Cardinal Tetra
5 Corydora
3 Assassin snails


What other kind of fish would you recommend for this aquarium size?

I'd prefer something small, and colorful. =)
Assassin Snails are a type of snail that eat other snails.

Their shells are usually yellow and black banded or orange and black banded depending.
 
I like it so far.

You might want to look at trying a top dweller since you have bottom and mid in there already, perhaps a group of redtail rasboras, or for something more active danios, or for something less active hatchet fish.

Then you might add something like a single small type gourami as a kind of centerpiece fish to go with all the schools.

That would create a nicely balanced tank with decent stocking levels. Good luck.

i have an angel with neon tetras, i got him very small but i dont think he's one of these high fin fancy ones that grow massive, but yeah angels will eat fish that they can fit in their mouths so because of the size of your tetra you have a slight limitation.

if you want very colourful and active schoolers, any kind of rainbowfish as they dont grow too big but have absolutely fantastic colours. the colours look even better with a black background

check out http://www.tropicalfishandaquariums.com/Compatibility/NameResults.php select any fish from the list, it tells you recommended group sizes and compatible fish (based not only on size and aggression but also water conditions and tank requirements etc)
 
Yer if u want ur cardinal tetras dead put in an angelfish and a silver dollar.

cochu's blue
rummynose
danio
halequin tetra
bloodfin tetra
silvertip tetra
bristlenose (theres a variety of colourful ones you can get ie. peppermint or snowflake)
congo tetras (really cool orange colour)
glowlight tetra
blackphantom tetra
penguin tetra

they r mostly all small cept the bristlenose
cochu's blue and congos can get a nice colour
 
I don't know what assassin snails are but they sound cool! I would put in maybe a few bigger fish like an angel fish or a silver dollar, or even a rainbow shark. And maybe a smaller school of smaller fish such as rummynoses, or danios. Tiger barbs are also bright in color and would go well if you keep them in a school of approx 5, anything less and they may nip at the corys and tetras,
 
Rosy barbs, they add red to your tank. Angel fish has pretty fins. But if you want a fish with personality, get a salvini, rainbow cichlid, or firemouth, though it could be aggressive sometimes. The existent fish can be used as dither fish.
