Does one exist?

I'm planning an Amazon community including Corydoras, Neon Tetras and Platys, but would like one or two larger fish to be swimming around in there too...

So, any suggestions on what could be suitable, and wont be likely to eat the others?
 
Angel fish depending on your tank size. Though they may eat your neons depending on the size of both. I've a couple angels with rummynose and bloodfin tetras and they're all happy. I lost one rummnose the first night after adding to the tank but the pictus cat is the primary suspect in that crime ;) Tank's been up and running for 18+ months.
 
Platies will not make your stocklist purely Amazon.

Angelfish, discus, rams, apistos, plecos, cories, pencilfish, tetras and hatchetfish would be your options. What size is the tank being planned?
 
Largish fish? knowing what your tank size is can help.

geo's?
