I think you're fully stocked as it is.
Great buy though!

eventually the softshell has to go, or it will start eliminating fish

My suggestion is get the turtle out of there (he definitely doesn't belong there-sorry), take the 2 Plecs out and get you 6 or 7 Silver Dollars. There'll be tons of activity then and it's hilarious to watch Silver Dollars sntach food out of an Oscar's mouth and leave him with a blank look on his face wondering where dinner went lol Plus they're as good of cleaner-uppers as Clown Loaches.
The Plecs and the turtle are a tremendous bio-load. You'll be fighting an uphil battle trying to have good water with them in there.
Just my opinion though.
