I know human beings and fish can co-exist peacefully.

Hi,
First, we should know how many watts/gallon light you
have for the tank, and what type of light it is.
Then we should know the water chemistries (pH,KH,GH).
Then we should know what you have in mind for the
tank (lots of plants, or just a few).

Rocks, should be all non-carbonates. In other words
they should all pass the "Fizz test." You drop a drop
of vinegar on a fresh broken surface and the drop does
not fizz.

Once you decide what "look" you are trying to create,
and publish the lighting, water chemistries, we can
help.

I'd go with a dark substrate. Plenty of rocks and/or hiding places, or moreso, places for them to swim through. Also, some large leaf plants, or some long, narrow leaf plants might look nice with that selection of fish. Just an idea. hope it helps!
