125 with dual overflows and a 45 gallon sump, 1 inch of black moon sand and 1 medium size piece of driftwood currently has

6 ...3-4 inch read head tapajos
6.... 3 inch tiger sds
2.... 6 inch electric blue acaras
1... 4 inch flagtail

I may move the 6 tiger sds to another tank and add in some java fern/anubias/java moss

I was thinking of going with

Blue phantom pleco
Maybe 3 pictus cats
And a school of 15 larger S.A. tetras like Columbians?

I realize the geos will get around 6 and the tank will be pretty stocked once everyones bigger.... but I'm religious on WC and I hate empty tanks lol
 
I think a larger school of corys would be cool .. Like 25 or so. And assuming u take out the tiger sds I would add 25 rummynose tetras

6 red head tapajos
2 acaras
1 flagtail
25 corys
25 rummynose tetras
 
i would just get the pleco and a big cichlid to grow out. an uaru would be cool.

i personally wouldnt change out the silver dollars, but bump up to 10 of them.
 
I think your stocking idea is fine. If it were my tank, I'd switch the SD's out and add some hatchetfish, also a school of tetras. I think the hatchets schooling on top and the tetras down low, would look great.

Plus some oil catfish/honeycomb tatia

I'm actually dirting and planting another tank and corys and rummy nose are already on the list for that tank.... but I like where your head is at

Yea I was thinking a school of 15 Columbians. I'm not a big fan of hatchet fish and there's too much water movement in the top column
