Default Good dither fish for GBR's

I'm thinking of selling off my stock of tetras and getting a pair of German blue rams for my 29 tall. I've heard they do well with some "dither fish" (fish that are more brave than the GBRs but at the same time not aggressive nor overly energetic). Any thoughts on what I should keep? Would any of my existing tetras do the trick?

Bloodfins and black skirts. The black skirts are very docile but the bloodfins seem to be very energetic, especially with eating.

Most rasboras are pretty docile from what I hear.I am thinking of getting some to replace my white clouds.The brilliant rasboras are pretty and so are the sarawak rasboras(the ones I want,lol)

I plan on putting cardinals in with my german blue and german gold rams. even neons would be good as well. maybe even zebra danios ? i've had red minors in with my golds and they seemed to do the trick as well. good luck =)
