I wouldn't add the peacocks or kribs. Peacocks need different water from the other fish you mentioned. The kribs reproduce often and would attack any fish that comes close to the fry.
That's way to many fish for a 55 gallon. Seeing how tetras, and barbs should be in groups. Kris should not be with community fish. You should really think about narrowing down your choices and researching them.
Praecox don't need as much room as Boesemani but are larger than threadfins and furcatas (both of which are beautiful). Madagascar rainbows have a beautiful long, slender shape unlike most rainbows.

I put together a rainbow tanks which is slightly smaller than yours. started with Bozeman (4) whish after 8 weeks are absolutely fabulous. Then I added various other rainbows from my local store - always a couple and different colors. Just added colorful rams - the aquarium is spectacular with movement and color.
