I'd put no more than about 8-10 small fish in a tank of that size, so if you've got 4 guppies then you could add maybe 4 or 5 small peaceful fish.
Don't get any that are fin nippers because they'll harrass the guppies all the time.
You could try some neon tetras, they are small and colourful and will make good tankmates for guppies.
Avoid tiger barbs and buenos aires tetras as these are more aggressive unless kept in a large group and will attack the guppies.
You're better off trying for smaller fish.
You can have a look at glowlight tetras, lemon tetras, rummy nosed tetras etc.
Any of them would provide a colourful and peaceful addition to the tank.

If you keep your tank nice and clean you can try a trio of neon, cardinal or glolite tetras and a pair of the smaller aneus catfish. You might also be able to squeeze in a pair of glass shrimp
http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/prod_Display.cfm?siteid=21&pCatId=1468 This would be a bit more packed than I usually recommend unless you are really good about maintenance.
The guppies tend to be top water fish, tetras mid water swimmers and catfish and shrimp on the bottom so you maximize the space that way. The catfish will eat food that falls to the bottom (not poop so make sure they get some) and the shrimp are excellent scavengers - I have 4 in my 10 gallon.
Consider adding small live aquatic plant or two if you have good lighting as they help absorb some waste products -something like Anubias Nana
Here are a few pics from my tank. Currently I have 10 fish plus the shrimp in here.

Um, how many gallons is that? You should have 1 inch of full grown fish per gallon. So 5 gallons = 5 inches of fish = 1 betta, or 2 mollies, or 2 guppies. What kind of fish you can have depend on a lot. With guppies you can put tetras, danios, um, mollies. . . .You'd have to do research on the types you want to see if they are too agressive or too nippy to be with the other fish you want.

30 litres is about 8 us gallons. I wouldn't add anymore fish to it. Maybe a snail and some ghost shrimp for cleaners, but that would be it. Sorry........

do not get snails. They breed too a lot. 3 guppies 2 corydoras in case you do get corydoras they devour flakes that visit the bottom. in case you want to modify their weight-loss plan some get shrimp pellets. the only loves them! desire I helped! digital mail me for more effective help

Add only 1-2 more as tops, preferably not even 1.

they say 1CM of fish exclusing tail to 1 liter of water so about 10 MAX you could have mollies then u will have millions of baby mollies if u have 3 female to 1male.
A male anal fin its pointed like a penis (dont report me as its helping sum1) and the female has a fan type of anal fin.

You can put upto 10 into the tank, don't over fill it with them as there will not be enough food left for them
