They should work out ok. Before you add Rams though, I'd add more corys, they like to be in larger groups. 5-6 is a good starting point :)

If you have nippy fish, Rams will not last long. I would beef up the tetra schools. At least 6 of each species. Having more emperor tertras may lessen aggression.
