The L114 is the only one I have access to. Is the one on this website the right one?
it’s almost at the very bottom of the pleco section

No clue, never owned one myself. Always wanted one tho, just never had the opportunity.
In my experience they grow slowly to 3” SL, and then they have a growth spurt to 5” SL and the growth rate slows down again
I've had a few types of L114 the common sternalla seemed to be the slowest growing of the bunch. My others grew roughly 2" a year.
I think a Pseudacanthicus would be the way to go. As your fish are mostly carnivorous and so are the pseudas, you should be able to feed much of the same food. They're also active and can hold their own. Many species to chose from.

How big are the pike and bichir? If you're looking to add a baby 114 and it's ever out in the open I would expect the pike to eat it. I don't have any personal experience with bichirs. I would not trust my zebra pikes with very small plecos.
Sorry if I missed it but what size is your tank? I know you seem to have made up your mind on the 114 but there might be some better options out there for you...
