I have the opportunity of getting a second hand 200 litre tank, which is 100cm by 40cm by 55cm.

I'm keen to keep a pair of keyhole cichlid in it. I know Red breasted acara have small territories. Would a pair of Red breasted acara also be feasible in a well planted tank?

Other tankmates would be 6 black phantom tetras and 6 three striped corydoras.

Thanks for any advice you have.

I wouldn't with keyholes as they are very shy for cichlids. The rest shouldn't be a problem with them.

That said, I’ve never kept Acara’s

Should be ok imo. Laetacara are even more peaceful than Keyholes.
