My SA Cichlid tank

Get a rapheal if you want, but you probably wont see him. I have one, and it is VERY elusive. That's what they do. He does scavenge the bottom though, and it is a nice treat when I do see him.
 
hoplo, and porthole catfish. Much better for the community ype setup than pictus, are almost to peaceful for their own good, and get to a good size, 4 ish inches.

I was int he same situation you were in, and instead of cories, I opted for hoplos. much more interesting to look at, ame basic personality.

and their from SA. Can't go wrong.
