What should I keep in there guys?
How about some danios? They are hardy and biotopically correct too. Feeding with flakes would be easy..

The swimming area isn't much. So, I can try Badis (but already have a setup for them), Panchax, Colisa Gouramis or.....

That is an amazing species no doubt. It would love dim lighting. I have read it can even shoot insects down like Colisa lalia with a jet of water from the mouth. But it does not travel well, and i have never seen it in sale in stock lists, leave alone in shops.

the water portion is quite dark, compared to a normal aquarium, so why not something that "glows"...what about "Hemigrammus erythrozonus"
or as already suggested a panchax. just recently i have seen one, which is supposedly native...great colours

Hemigrammus erythrozonus looks great and schools also well.... But they grow a bit big.... I would suggest some thing delicate for this ..... This is just me :)
Finally i am Broke but Happy :D
