Is it possible to add more fish in my tank? Nitrates always reads 5.0 ppm

Family wants me to add more fish ???? Is it possible to add more fish? Like a small school of smaller fish like killifish or maybe otocinclus? Ember tetras or Chili rasboras? Corydoras? Kuhli loaches? I wanted to add 2 red razer nerite snails but nope, they want FISH fish.

Water parameter: 78-80F GH: 80 KH: 120 PH: 7.4 Ammonia: 0 ppm Nitrite 0 ppm Nitrate 5.0 ppm

My tank is a 20 gallon long tank and these are my fish currently living in it:

  • 10 blue emperor tetras
  • 5 yellow shrimps
  • 1 orange dwarf mexican crayfish
  • 1 male honey gourami
  • 1 female thick lipped gourami
  • 1 blue mystery snail
  • and a bunch of pest snails which I sometimes remove.
