I had a couple (two females) with my mbuna tank.

They were huge compared to my other fish, but one of my dominant ice blues (half the size) kept on harassing them forcing them to the corner of the tank.

If there are many fish to spread aggression, I think they are fine.

I agree with this, I have had plenty of eye biters over the years and not had any aggression issues.. They are predators though so would clean up any small fish or fry but my adult ones didn't eat dems/yellows or female peacocks so it wasn't an issue for me.
