Hello and welcome to the forum.
You could try some Bolivian Rams, a good member of the cichlid family to have in a community tank and there quite hardy. Not sure if they are compatible with your two female fighters, one of the other members will be able to advise you there.

welcome.

Have you ever heard about the 'cycling' of fish tanks? You mention that you have had the tank set up for 4 weeks before adding fish. What exactly did you do with the tank for those four weeks?
