1x salvani / convict
2x firemouth
1x severum
1x green terror

whadaya think?

Lose the salvini. They are complete terrors. I would also not chance a convict. The other fish are all pretty unaggressive (though you occasionally will get a berserk GT) and if they are all the same size the convict will dominate. Perhaps replace it with a geophagus (not brassiliensis or bahia) and add a bristlenose pleco for algae patrol.

what else could I replace the salvani with?

I'll get a bristle nose too, thanks for the suggestion.
