Probably just adding a single one would be good. I used to have a single male and he was fine for over a year, but then a 12+ power outage got him. I have since added two females and they are doing fine. The larger one has semi morphed and is clearly the dominate one. By semi morph, she/he has the long doral fin, the color is still pinkish but has very purple hi lights on the edges of the fins. I've had they now for over 1-1/2 years. There is a little aggression in my 90 (4ft.) so if your tank isn't 4 ft., you may be better off with just one.
