Shelldwellers, Neo. brichardi (or a relative) or maybe a pair of Julidochromis. That's about it for Rift Lake cichlids though. I wouldn't try any of the Malawis in a tank as small as you've mentioned.

A 20g long would make a great Lamprologus multifasciatus tank.
The brichardi and Julies I would only do in a 20 or larger. The multies can go in something smaller (10 at the smallest imho).

Rams would be alright too. Another suggestion is a pair of Apistogramma cacatuoides (cockatoo dwarf cichlid). Some species of Apistos would also work. Kribs would work in the 20. There's several species of dwarf cichlids you could check out. Lots of choices
