stock
4 clown loaches
1 red tail shark
1pleco
2 spiny eels
1 sen bichir
1 delhzi bichir
1 angelfish

if its not over stocked can I get another sen bichir

Yes I know these questions are asked a lot. :)
 
I think it might be a little overstocked so just don't add anything. Heavy filtration would help a lot.
 
yeah agreed with the above. Just imagaine all of those fish at full grown size, it will be pretty stocked
 
the eels are 6inch and thats as big as they get maybe a little bit bigger the pleco im not to sure about. If I get a 125 gallon would that be good?
 
I say you are fine as it is. Probably don't want to push the bio load much further, though. Another sen might be ok, but that would probably put you solidly on the "slightly overstocked" side of things.

Just dissenting
 
depends how many water changes you like to do.. and a fyi... my baby endlicheri bichir made a solid go at my clown loaches, got lucky enough to save it in time. wouldnt put it past a sen or del either.
