Cichlids are considered aggressive? No. Certain cichlids are brutal. Others are shy and almost humble. Really depends on the species.

A pair or two of Cryptoheros sajica? These are relatively territorial, but they mind their own business unless someone enters their territory during breeding. How about a pair of Thorichthys maculipinnis? Even less territorial than the sajicas, and spectacularly colored.

You could have 2 pairs of Rainbows, Firemouths, Arcaras, or Bolvian rams. These are generally not very aggressive and a 75 gallon should be enough space for them all.

How about a Blood Parrot. The Tiger Barbs would leave them alone and they are very colorful and interesting.
