With jags, you could probably do either a single or a breeding pair. Thankmates will really depend on the individual fish. With a breeding pair, I would not put anything else in, as if they do breed they would probably beat the heck out of anything close by. With a single, any of the larger plecos would probably be safe enough.

No loaches. They are not used to being pushed around by aggressive cichlids. Plecos, doradids or synodontis may be your best bets.
