Hey Guys,
I've currently got a 120g 4x2x2 tank that is stocked with
1. Sevrurm
2. Firemouth
3. Angles
1. Platinum Gourami
1. Red Tail Shark
1. Blue Acara
1. Goldspot Pleco
1.featherfin cat
Do you guys think i could add another 3-4 angels and another 2-3 Firemouth
 
Unless you can handle a large bio load with a couple large water changes a week, and put the firemouths and angels that haven’t paired in a separate tank since I could see pairs forming in both cichlid species and later chaos from 2 pairs fighting over territory. I will say no.
 
Kind of a random assortment of fish. But if it's not broken, don't fix it I guess. I think adding more firemouths is a little risky, pairs could mess up the balance. The angels as well but they are less pushy so I would be less worried about them. Your Bio-load if you added the 5-7 more cichlids would be a little high as well.
Personally would hold off; if you do try and add them just keep an eye on it and be wary that you may need to up your water change schedule when the fish are full sized.

I think it depends how big your current fish are, full size you will be pretty much full. Possibly if they are all still small you could get away with it but will have to be prepared to move things around when they are grown.
I used to keep these mix and match style of tanks too, I always thoughtt it's funny that all the fish would never come across each other in the real world but can all live together in a tank in my living room.

Thats what I was thinking. Im pretty happy with it now. I was originally going to get a oscar but then i realised oh wait I got a heap of fish in small tanks when I could just have a really nice big tank so they all got mixed on together. The red tail sharks a bit aggressive and so Is the bigger firemouth but other then that they all work together perfectly
