Best for small tank

I currently own a 70 gallon tank in which is all community fish.

But i was thinking about getting a small tank. Somewhere around 5 gallons maybe.

What would be the best/most attractive species to put in it?

I was thinking of maybe just adding bamboo shrimp =)

My 2 ADF's are in a 5g and they do great.
I could see that they'd probably do well with a little more swim room though.
