Advice:
Regular vacuum gravel + 10-30% water change every week. Regular fertilizer dosage after water change. Keep experimenting with fishes - I have 4 red devils in the same tank without any problems.... Occasionally the bigger one chases the others but no physical harm though...
My luck with plants succeeded when I got my 76W PL lights and started dosing fertilizer(Potassium)

Read up and do what you think is right, learn by your mistakes, it doesn't matter if you get it wrong and lose a few fish along the way. And except the fact that you will go bigger... I started with a 8g biorb 3 yrs ago and have just started a second 50g Malawi tank!
