Depends on what type of tankmates you want and how you aquascape your tank. I have angelfish and clown loaches with bichirs. They seem to get alone fine.

My loaches are about 2.5-3 inches right now. I only have four loaches due to fear of the loaches taking over the tank. Oh I forgot to add that I have a few small plecos in there as well. I have a endi, polli palmas, weeksi, delhezi. The setup you're doing is somewhat similiar to my setup. I have claypots, driftwood, black background, and dark color substrate.
