its tight but ya.
 
Don't jar's kill anything in their tank?
 
Tank size will work for a while.
Jar is a big no no, it will kill everything.
Pleco will work as long as it doesn't fit in cichla's mouth.
Silver dollars are awesome dithers for cichla but smaller ones will get picked off.

Go with red tail tinfoil barbs isntead of SD's, tinfoils are much faster growing and they can take a beating. SD's I have found to grow a lot slower and be a bit more fragile. tinfoils could survive just about anything
 
Definitely remove the jardini from consideration due to aggression. I like the barbs too, but a school will be a lot of big active fish and that will limit space in tank

thats why I suggested red tail tinfoils, they max out at 8" or slightly more instead of 14" like the Schwandeldi species. I have 3 in my tank and I think I have 2 regulars and a red tail. I'm not entirely sure though.
