Is there any filtration? If not, I don't recommend you keep any cichlid in a tank of that size especially. You can consider instead perhaps a single betta? Wild or cb both also can. if wild, only keep those smaller sized ones

think have to give up thinking of keeping as no filtration for the tank. only the plant inside the tank as filtration.

I don't think the apisto will appreciate a tank without filtration or airstone as bare minimum

I think betta's would be lovely. Espacially when ur making it flare. Maintenance wise is alot easier than chicild. Just my 2cents..
