Finalizing my 75g

[Kelsicula]

In my tank currently I have 2 Senegal Bichir, a regular that appears male and an albino that appears female, judging from its fatter body, both are about 4in. With them I have a gold severum and angelfish, along with a large sailfish pleco that I plan on trading in once my bristlenose gets a few more inches on it. I have a new school of 5 roseline sharks (aka Denison barbs) and plan on adding a school of red hump geophagus.

In your collective experience, is this a good setup, or should I also see about rehoming the angel when I trade down the pleco?

Do I have some wiggle room?

I want to hear all opinions, thank you for your input in advance.

Would suggest getting a larger tank. The geos will need more room.

Without the geos the rest of the stock should be fine except the barbs. Will need to be big or fully grown to avoid predation by polys.

My bichirs are more passive and opportunistic than predatory, and my barbs swim circles around them, so that's been pretty awesome. And the red hump geo maxes out at 6" in captivity, even then theyd be too much?

They require a good amount of space last time remember to keep a happy group. Can ask Stanzzzz7 for his opinion on it.

Sorry but in my opinion your fully stocked.
Your Severum alone could get to twelve inches,plus your bichirs and other stock. Things will soon look a little crowded.
As for the red heads, I think a tank of a 4 x2 footprint would be the absolute bare minimum for a small group.
I have seen red heads reach 8 inches before so bigger would be better.

They all seem passive until other fish go missing. If it were my tank and stock, that 75 gal is overstocked. Sev alone will fill that tank out
