I was thinking of the Boesemani Rainbow. Just haven't been able to find any anywhere around here.

Roseline barbs all the way! They look stunning in a group in a planted tank!

I personally love boesemani rainbows, they get big and really beautiful. Green tiger barbs are good too.

the bigger the school they're in, the cooler/happier they are. Also if you get like 10 of them they will usually just nip at eachother and not bother the other tank-mates. Cuz they can get kinda nippy.

Petco/Petsmart usually have boesemanis.

I've to agree that tiger barbs have tendency to nip the fins of other fishes. Rainbow might be a better option.

Yes, Denison barbs will be a good addition. 6 to 8 of them.
