They should be with there own kind however some fish just need to be with other fish. Usually fish that school need to be with their own species to actually school. If fish are similar in size, shape, and mannerisms often times they will school together. If you are buying a schooling fish just go ahead and get at least six of the same kind. If you want two different kinds, get two groups of six or more, and so on. Always provide sufficient space. they surive alot better kept in schools but they can survive with out them

Why do the fish at the aquarium always seem to be swimming in the same direction?

Probable because they are schooling fish. Schooling fish stay together in groups so that it is harder for predators to get at them I think. Some schooling fish actually have to stay together in groups or else they will get sick, so if you have, or are going to get a tank, make sure you get enough. Or, they might not be schooling fish, and might just be scared!
