Tank Setup Advice & Suggestions

Hey all,

I'm a newb to dwarf cichlids and was hoping I could get some advice/suggestions/insight into my current setup and how next to proceed :)

My Setup:
60 gallon tank 48" x 24.5" x 12.5"
- 1 Aquaclear 500 (filled with sponge inserts)
- 1 Aquaclear 300 (one sponge insert, one carbon, one biomax stuff insert)
- 1 300 W Heater
- 1 48" single light canopy
- Black natural gravel
- couple pieces of driftwood

My fish (so far):
- 2 BN Plecos (both less than 1.5" in size)
- 6 Bronze Cories (all less than 1" in size)
- 5 Apistogramma Agassizzis (all less than 1" in size)
- 9 harlequin rasboras

The fish above are currently having no issues :)

Is the above setup fine? Should I expect problems between the fish in the near future? I am planning to add a bunch of fake plants - any specific kinds you'd recommend? Any other suggestions/concerns?

Thanks in advance!

Hi I didn’t know if you still have any of the Apistogramma Cuipeua?
Would be interested if so.
