Most tetra can be kept with TBs. The key factor is how big the TB school is. How many do you have now? If theres enough, a decent school of any short finned tetra would probably be ok. The longer the fins, the more chance there is of fin nipping. Also, avoid cardinal tetras, as they are much less hardy than neons.

Most hardy tetras would be fine. The number of barbs and the size of the tank play in this as well. Larger tetras like dimond, lemon, bleeding heart, emporer, white tip, columbian, white, black skirt, serpae, pristella, black phantom, buones aires, flame(von rio), red eye, and many others. Even a lot of the more torpeto shaped tetras like neons, blue, black neons, glowlight, bloodfin, silver tip, gold and others.

Lots of tetras can. Right now am keeping my Bleeding Heart tetras with tiger barbs and everything is fine. I don't have expirence keeping them with any other tetra but Im sure they can be kept with lots of others. The people above gave great other options!
