It depends on the large cichlid species. Possibly Lima Shovelnose, Megalodoras Uranoscopas, Megalodoras Irwini. There are more I can't think of at the moment.
I have fear of cockroaches.
A pond actually. Around 5 metres in length, 2.5 metres is width and around 1 metres deep. It's my old pond, that I had moved some of the fish into a bigger pond. So yeah, only a few cichlids are left there.
There are a few vieja: a heterospila, an argentea, a melanurus, a breidohri and a bifas. A red devil or a midas(IDK). A pair of jaguar. A male motaguense. A green texas. Around these sizes. The 2 largest species of my cichlids are either a cichla monoculus or a male parachromis dovii. Currently I only have a raphael catfish with them(somehow bro survived for years). Also a lower-jawed bichir.
If you can find some already grown Pimelodus ornatus. They get to a foot in size. They are a lot more active than some catfish. Mine did a great job cleaning up after the Oscar it was with. All the food that flee out of her gills as she ate it gobbled it up.
They do spend some time in hiding. I would say about 50/50 hiding/resting, rest of the time out hunting food.
They can be solo, or in a group like pictus cats.
