Sick of rummynose, planning to return in exchange for what other schooling fish?

So I bought 9 rummynose tetras about a week ago and I've had nothing but problems. First one died in the first day because of a swim bladder issue. Then i noticed they have started severely nipping at my long-fin peppered corys (I assume the long fins spark curiosity, making them nip). At first I let it slide but now i can see chucks out of the fins of my corys. Finally they were infected with ick (from the tank at the pet store). So I treated them with medication and heat for 5-6 days now and there is no sign of it.

 

So I was planning to call my LFS to return/exchange them for a different tetra but don't now what to go with.

 

I also like to add that they have been in perfect health, and I have never seen such bright noses on rummys before. :)

Thanks in advance.
