I currently have a young Firemouth in a 40 gallon breeder, I am going to add a second one in good time and I am wondering if I will be able to add any blue avatars or something like this to the tank?

I would if anything add more Firemouth. FM are like tetras in the way they prefer to be in groups of their kind to feel more comfortable. Then you also will be able to watch the group dynamics that FM have. All the grandstanding they do with gill flare fights is hilarious.
But then in time you would need to upsize to a 75 to house a group of adults.
