I already have a two year old neutered male mini rex and I'm looking to get him a friend. I'm not sure if I should get another mini rex or if I should get a mini lop. What are the pros and cons of each breed? Thank you.

Whichever rabbit your rabbit chooses and accepts IS the "right" rabbit. When looking for a bondmate, it really is up to the existing rabbit as to which other rabbit he seems likely to accept.
The best way to do this is to allow your male to meet some other spayed females. See which one seems to show potential and then the bonding process can begin. Rabbit rescues will work with owners to help ensure they end up with a compatible match. If, after trying to bond a potential companion, it just doesn't work out, they typically allow an exchange to try out another potential. Breed is totally irrelevant when it comes to bonding two rabbits.
Here is some further information on bonding rabbits.
