Dwarf Cichlids

How many apistogramma nijsseni could I safely fit into an established 26 gallon aquarium. What kind of water do they need to survive and could other south american dwarf cichlids like apistogramma borellii go into the tank with the nijsseni's. Also do the nijsseni's need a upside down flower pot...

A. Borellii
How agressive do borellii's get when they are breeding. Could they kill one of my tetras? Also, would a upside down flowerpot be a good spot for them to lay their eggs on?
