Hello everyone!

I'm getting a brand-new 60 Gallon tank sometime next week! It's going to be planted with all live-plants (any suggestions for plants?) and I am going to have a pair of freshwater Angel fish, and 3 pearl gouramis, 2 females 1 male. All 5 of these fish I own already, but they are being held in the store until I get and cycle my tank. Does anyone have any suggestions for shrimp to put in this tank? Snails? What about other fish? I don't want to over-stock my tank, but i also want a lot of pretty other fish, preferably over 1.5" so the angel fish can't eat them. :D
