Default Options for a 20L?

I setup a 20L (20gal "long") at work recently, currently cycling. Any
cichlids that would do ok in this smaller tank? What type and how
many? Otherwise, I may just go community. Thanks.

neutral pH, you could go with pair of Jewels, pair of Kribs, pair of Flag
cichlids, couple pair of rams, apisots, etc.
One pair. ;-)

Hard water, high pH, you could do an pair of shellies like Lamprologus brevis,
or a community of Lamprologus multifasciatus. You could do a pair of
Neolamprologus brichardi or any of their kin. Maybe a pair of Julidochromis
transcriptus or Julidochromis dickfeldi.
The possiblities are endless.

I might go the Jewel route. One Pair My other thought was to get a
school of tiger barbs. I hear they're cool, although not cichlids thanks
