I think that would probably be fine. Although africans are quite aggressive, they tend to ignore bottom dwelling fish like rainbow sharks. I've seen it done before.

If you are looking for a bottom feeder for an African tank that is guaranteed to work, get yourself a synodontis catfish. They are from the same lakes, get along with cichlids, and can be stunningly beautiful.
