What fish can live with Kribensis in a 125 gallon tank?

I have been searching for info on fish that will get along with Kribensis (Pelvicachromis pulcher). But from what I can see, most ppl have them in 20 or 30 gal aquariums. Well, I have a 125g tank. My ideal fish right now that I want to stock and breed is the Kribensis. But every place I look at talk about 20g tanks and Rams. Or Molly's or I think I saw one place that said Killi Fish. I found one person that claimed he had some male and female. But Other then one that is real faint in color and the others just having a black stripe I cant tell. But none the less. I know they are territorial when breeding. But when they are not. What are some other fish I can add with them in this Giant tank? The Kribs I just got have been in the tank for 3 days and, well, I never really see them. I did a water change and had to fish out a Bumblebee cichlid. So Im sture I stressed everyone out. So I still count today as day one because of the water change and the fishing for one small mean fish.

Sorry, running on alot.... So what can I add with them? Lake Tanganeka fish, Maluie, or what? LOL Im new but my brother got into fish real strong when he was a teen.
 
WOW, I just read that my tanks ph should be around the 7.0 area? WOW When I used the PH test it showed 7.6 and then I tried the "High Range ph test" and it showd 8.0 all the rest is 0.0 other then Ammonia that goes up and down from time to time from 0 ppm to 0.25
