29 gallon long Central American cichlids?

Okay so I just bought a 29 gallon long, it's a weird tank cause usually 29's are taller, but this has alot of ground space do I thought cichlids would be good.

I have nothing in it currently, it's been cycling for about a week with an old filter + a new one, and half of the water is from other tanks, also I put some old decorations to help speed up the process.

I was looking at getting two pairs of Central American cichlids, along with maybe some larger schooling fish like silver dollars or Columbian tetra.

I would give alot of cover and territory to have because I know there will be aggression.

I was thinking something like a pair of elliots firemouths and a pair if sajicas if I could find them, and like 12 Columbian tetra, along with some bottom feeder like some larger corydoras.

I have mbuna and a tropical planted with dwarf south Americans tank so id like to try something new with Central Americans, or even some larger South Americans, like 6 cupid cichlids for example. If anyone could give me some suggestions it would be great! All info is considered so throw it at me!
