What would you change?

6" Clouded Archerfish
6" Starry Night Paratilapia sp. "Fianarantsoa"
3" NTT Datnioid
5" Moonlight Gourami
5" CAE
10" retropinnis bichir
eight 6" filament barbs
three 3" clown loaches

The cichlid wants a territory, and the dat swims all over the tank not understanding the need for territory. So the poor little dat ends up getting chased around a lot. I was hoping this stock would be fine together long term but as the cichlid has outgrown the cave he used to share with the bichir, he's out and about getting rowdy. What would you change if it was your tank? Thanks.

I would rearrange territories and might have to relocate cichlid if it gets really bad. Maybe make a bigger cave for the cichlid?
