If you want to add some a piar of cichlid your best be is either a pair of Apistogramma cacatuoides or borelli. Both are quite nice looking fish and are easy to keep and do not need any special water conditions.

Though if you would like something diffrent i have some A. sp. "Inca" take a look.

Are they also less demanding
 
Less demanding than what?

They need good water but other than good water change as good husbandry they are oretty easy to keep and breed.
