You know your tank better than anyone but i don't think you hit your limit yet.

Oh, i don't think so but give it some time to adjust before adding anything else.

Your tank will tell you when its time to stop (within reason of course --- there are accepted maximums defined). It depends on a myriad of things, such as amount of biofiltration you have as well as what kind if mechanical filtration you're running. LOL, kind of a loaded question!

Whats a Squampini ??

Watch and see, you will know better than we will. Watch your fish for signs of aggression/ agitation as well a your N/P levels. If your tank can handle the load and the fish don't seem like they are living in a mosh pit consider more, but consider well. Fill gaps in rolls and preferred swimming areas so you don't get too much more overlap.

If they stay relatively stabile for a month or two and stuff is peaceful, sure, carefully add more.
