I'd get about 7-10 Cardinal Tetras. You could go more if you wanted.

Rummy nosed teras ( Hemigrammus*bleheri ) are really god at schooling. Often cardinals school but sometimes they don't. Hemigrammus*bleheri isn't as colorfull as the cardinal but in my opinion a lot sweeter because they pack tight together and don't separate. Their mouths stick out a lot to so I highly recomend them!

I would say that Rummy-nose and Bloodfin Tetras are the best at the practice of schooling, IMO. But, they are neither colorful or flashy.
