I have a 55gal with one large black angel fish, 11 clown loaches, 4 cory cats, 7 rummynose tetra, 5 harlequin rasbora, a yellow pleco, and 7-10 other various tetras, that lived through the Jardini making a quick visit to the tank. I wanted to add one more angelfish, but last time I tried to add an angel with this one he killed it. It was in a smaller tank at the time.... so I didn't know if that was the trouble?

I would like this tank to house the 2 angels, the 11 clown loaches, the 7 rummynose, 7 harlequin rasbora, and the yellow pleco. What would you all suggest?

What kind of filtration do you have? Depending on actual sizes, that tank sound overstocked already. If you do get another angel, I'd look at removing some CL. A divider is a good way to introduce fish always.
 
It may be, but I have a lot of filters! Two H.O.B. and a canister. I don't even have any ideas what the GPH is, but the two H.O.B.'s are rated for use on 60 gallons, and the canister is rated for 90 gallons. I guess that means I can filter a 210 properly with these filters!

I have the canister filled with batting and Matrix, and the two H.O.B. have ceramic rings, one has some carbon as well. I change 1/3 of the water weekly. The tank is planted, all my test levels are solid.

The clown loaches are all pretty small still...the biggest is 3". I want to thin out the tetras and the cory cats, and just leave the fish listed in my first post.
Thanks!

It is already with 11 clown loaches.
