Ok so my tank is only 2x1x1 (55 litres), the current stocking will be (when they arrive)

2 Bolivian Rams
10 Neon Tetras
5 Panda Corys

I was hoping to have a couple of centerpiece pairs, I was going to get a pair of Blue Rams but I found out my water is at about ph7.4 and too hard for them. So would I be able to fit a pair of Apistogramma cacatuoides in as well or would they be too cramped?
I've heard mixed opinions on their attitudes towards other cichlids, would they get along or tear each other to pieces?

What small species of Gourami or another species of cichlid who pair safely would I be able to add? Or do I not have enough space?
Would I be able to fit say just one Gourami or cichlid?
I'm just being greedy now, but I want them ALL!!! and I'm not allowed another tank in the house...

Thanks in advance! :D
 
Your proposed stocking will be, technically, overstocking a 55l. You might get away with it if you do enough water changes, but you certainly couldn't put another species in there, I'm afraid.
 
Thanks Fluttermoth, I was afraid of that :/ Never mind, I'll just have to plead for another tank :)
