Tretocephalus can be nasty fish mate, be warned!!!
I have one left out of three, I know for a fact he killed the others.
Still, the remaining Tret is a beaut, and is pretty well behaved, though he is surrounded by much bigger fish for the most part and never bothers my Leleupi.

Your mix can be done but I would do this:

Remove the Tropheus,they have different diets and either them or the omnivorous fish will suffer.

If your tank is over 4ft you might have a chance with the Trets as they are known.I personally would like to keep them but would do so in a Tret only tank.

Id go for more brevis and make sure to provide shells for them.

Cylindricus would be a good addition to that mix.

Best of luck with it.HTH
