So maybe drop the larger cats and go with 6 to 8 Megalechis thoracata ?
As for urostriatum; I am putting them in the 8x4 aquairum:

So maybe this for a stocking:
20 HEMIODUS GRACILIS (approx 6 inch)
20 lemon tetra (2-3 inch)
12 clown loaches (8 to 18 inches)
10-15 Anostomus (if not too expensive)
20 zebra loaches (3-4 inch)
maybe 1 flagtail prochilodus (12 inch)
8 Megalechis thoracata (4 inch)
8 krobia xinguensis (5 inch)
4-6 laeracara specie (probalby curviceps) (4 inch)
6 crossocheilus langei (if they can be obtained in usa; else drop them or obtain their cousin which are common)
some random pleco (172a,L204,L397,L128,...)
optionally 4 small chocolate cichild - reduced to 2 when sexed - these as adults would eat the lemon tetra and maybe the zebra loach - so maybe not a good idea
--
Maybe a bit heavy on the bottom side though my L204 spend a fair amount of time not on the bottom.
(the black lancers seem interesting but not sure we should add another group of foot long fishes on the bottom esp with the clown loaches and plecos).

Would this selection of species work for a 8ftx4ftx22 inch 'geo' aquarium ?
I'm working on stocking for a 'geo' aquarium and unfortunately have no first hand experience with many of the species in question so am hopeful that those more experience can provide some feedback on this stocking: The target water condition is tds 50, gh 2, kh 1, ph whatever (probably high 6)...
