how meany could live in a 6 x 2 x 2 or a 6 x 2 x 2.5(wide) or a 7 x 2 x 2 or if i can fish a 7 x 2 x2.5 (wide).
im think of:
40-corydoras catfish.
6 banjo catfish.
20 clown loach.
100 neon tetra.
100 black neon tetra.
25 emperor tetra.
25 tiger barbs.
25 green barbs.
25 golden barbs.
1 black ghost knife.
5 pictus catfish.
3 striped doras catfish.
4-6 discus-mixed.
50 cherry barbs.
1 L-002.
6 silver dolars.
5 tinfoil barbs (will later go in a diffrent tank when get to big)
and is there any other small fish that could live in the tank ? and not eat any thing ?
thank you .
 
this seems overstocked already mate.
and I don't think that keeping an Discus with that many fish's will work out,specially that some of those fish's that you have listed there are really active and quick moving species that may stress Discuis plus Silver Dolars will try to bite the fins of Discuis!!
for that many fish's you would need like over 300 UK gallons!!
my aquarium is 750 liters and all what I have there is two Adult Tiger Oscars!
you gotta to think again about the set-up but that's what you could do:
4-6 Discuis
maximum 50 neons
10 corydoras
1 small L pleco
sucker fish
1 banjo
plus lot's of bog wood and natural real plants to give fish's good natural habitat and lot's of hiding spaces plus more biological filtration plus you would need big canister, I recommend Eheim Proffesional 3
 
what's with the 25's and 100's?? Why not condense the tiger barbs down as they tend to shoal together anyway... why not...
20-corydoras catfish.

Also clownloach arent a southamerican species/

Neither are barbs. Nothing wrong with mixing these fish if you want to, but it won't be an Amazon setup.
