Should I get A Male Gbr

[mperkins21]

I have 20g with 7 Rummy nose tetras and 6 khuli loaches, and 1 Female gbr

I used to have a male but a week after getting him he sadly passed which i believe it was something with him because all the other fish are thriving (knock on wood). When he was there though he constantly bullied the female and she was always kind of stressed from him, but now he is not in there she roams the tank and is super personable, always interacting with me

my question is i heard that they do better in pairs but i dont want her to get into a situation of getting bullied again, I didnt know if i should just get another male or leave the stocking as is?

Oh and the tank is between 80-82 usually and is planted as well as cycled.

GBRs can be unpredictable when it comes to this sort of thing. I've heard stories were the owner had two GBRs. One died and the owner got a new one to replace the dead one but the old GBR killed the new one.
I wouldn't risk it.
