Theres quite a few corydora that prefer a low temp. Corydora adolfoi(max ph 7), paleatus, duplicareus(have these myself,from irene0100,very active) and even trilineatus.

The Scleromystax species like Barbatus, Kronei, Prionotos and my fave CW38 would be great tank mates as well as Corydoras Longipinnis, the males look stunning with their long dorsals. C. Napoensis may also be ok in a cooler tank. You'd be able to pick up most of these from Pier or local breeders, Mark Walters is the man for these species :)
