Finally going to get it.....

Awesome tank!! Ive been looking at congo tetras for a while and if I go this route can they work for dithers (maybe a school of 12 or so). Then adding the BGK, Threadfin acara, Sevrum pair, pink tail chalceus, than maybe some other dithers and bottom dwellers?

Congo tetras are cool but if I were you I would go with Buenos Aires tetras as it keeps with the SA theme, as for bottom dwellers I would do a group of pictus or hoplo catfish

Should be great, EB acara isn’t wouldn’t be my choice of fish but I do see there appeal, if I were you I would swap the EBA for a flag tail or something

Im not a stickler for geography so i say go for it. I typically try to keep fish in terms of water parameters.
