You are already pushing it in an 80g with your current stock, unless these fish are all still quite small. I wouldn't add anything until you get the 180g, and even then your current stock is plenty for a 180g.

Pictus are best kept in groups ime, so yes, I think that is pushing it.

I do not see a problem with you adding the pleco and 2 or 3 pictus. Just keep up you maintenance.

should be fine might have some issues if your females start laying eggs. just pay attention to aggression and your water quality.
