New 38galllon stocking

Hi all, I currently in the process of setting up my new Apisto “based” aquarium.
I am not looking at the setup as a breeding prioritised aquarium however I do like to see the fish showing their full character.
So the base tank is 31”long x 16” deep x 18” high = 38gallons…ish. Ph is 6.7 straight and temp around 24-25 degrees c. It’s planted and I have a SICCE whale 500 canister filter.

This is my current stocking idea:
18 ember tetras
8 Pygmy corrys
6 ottos
1m apisto borellii
1m apisto Agassizzi

According to aquarium stocker my weekly water change should be 18% and my stocking is under 70%.

So the question I’m asking is whether you see any issue with keeping two male Apistos in this aquarium or whether I should swap it around a little? Maybe introduce a different dwarf cichlid or apisto type. I’m

Many thanks in advance
