rams of any sort, a convict, a jack dempsey, 2-3 jewels, angelfish, most Tanganyikan cichlids excepting frontosa.

P45, you forgot to add Emperor cichlids on the no go list from Tanganyika

like nick said, apistos! truly dwarf cichlids.
10-15gal would be ok for a pair of ram.

Apisto or blue Rams
they are both great looking fishes
Personally I love Apistogramma-cacatuoides(triple-red), because it is a really easy fish to keep and really colorful.
Bolivian Ram is easier to take care than german blue ram..
1 pair of rams OR a trio of apistos!!
