Theyre all fairly easy to keep, Bolivian rams are probably the cheapest and easiest IMO, but I love my Apistos and dicrossus. But I've never dealt with kribs
 
My LFS said they could order them. I am going to get some this summer most likely. Would they be ok w my current stock? Cories, angelfish, syno cat, Plecostamus, & tetra.

Yep. It would work with your sock. I recommend apistos the best because they seem to be the hardiest IME. Never dealt with kribs either, but heard they can be a huge pain.
 
Kribensis tend to be a bit more aggressive than other dwarfs, plus you have a SA tank, so I doubt you wanna through a west African in there. If you do go with rams, do Bolivians, much hardier and calmer than GBRs. I just brought home an adult male GBR and he is being just plain awful to everyone, and is terrorizing my poor Bolivians! I would recommend cacatuoides or agassizi for the apistogramma, altough Apistos are much less common than rams

Also: what kind of tetras are they? And what tank size?
 
56 gallon column. The only tetra I have is a white skirt and he is currently in the hospital w pop eye.
