White cloud mountain minnows are coldwater fish and the fish you have would perfer warm water....I would like to put some in my 10G but unfourtionatly, can because It's already overstocked...so I cant tell you if theyll do good in the warm...try them out but make sure your tank isnt too overstocked.

White clouds like cooler water but, as long as the tank is 75 degrees F or less, they should be fine. They'll take warmer temperatures but only short term, or it shortens their lives. White clouds are very timid. Your existing fish are not. So, if the white clouds hide well enough and stay out of their way, they would be okay. I would worry that, being small and timid, your more boisterous fish might pester them. You won't know for sure unless you try it though. I've had danios and white clouds, no problem. When I had white clouds with rosy barbs, the barbs chased them in to hiding, and the white clouds didn't last long after that (they were also old).

Good luck!
