Neons will probably be better than Cardinals.And having syphilis is better than having AIDS,but neither is best!If you want some nice fish that will appreciate hard water try the following:

Shell dwelling Africans like Neolamp. ocellatus,multifasciatus,etc.
Most Barbs
Livebearers (try something different like Montezumae swordtails)
Florida Flagfish
Peaceful Sunfish like those in the genus Elassoma,or Orange Spots(Lepomis humilis)
Native shiners like Rainbows,Yellowfins,Blue Noses,etc.
The harder to find fish can be found from time to time on Aquabid.com,which is like Ebay for fish.Most lfs' including the one I run sell the same old fish over and over again,because that's what sells.There is a whole world of really great fish if we would all take the time to look!
