Ready to buy, looking for advice.

As the title states, I'm ready to buy the Keyholes for my 54 gallon, medium planted corner tank. I have 20 lemon tetras in there now, and I'm thinking that the Keyholes are the only other fish that I want to put in there (if theres wiggle room to fit in a small shoal of kuhli's or cory's later, that'd be great since that's the only other stock I've been considering). Once the tank is more mature, I'd like to add shrimp and nerites.

Since I have to order these online, I'm looking for some opinions on a good number to order. I'm thinking 5 / 6?

Maybe 4 keyholes? I don't really have any experience with keyhole cichlids so maybe that's too many?
You could do 12-18 cory.

Still waiting on shipment confirmation of the 4 Keyholes, but I got my qt tank mostly set up last night. Started cycling it with a few bits of bio media from my main tank, but I'll move a sponge filter rated for 40+ gallons over from my main tank tonight.
