I'm definitely not the stocking guy on the site...but I'd hold off on buying your fish until you get an expert opinion. Back when I was a teenager I added an Angel in with a school of Tiger Barbs and they annihilated him. I'd also be leery of the shark with the Bolivian Ram since they share the same tank space and the RTBS can be very aggressive and territorial. Rams can stand up for themselves...but they're very peaceful IME and could be bullied. You may also want to consider a Rainbow Shark instead of a RTBS since they are much more docile, but still semi-aggressive.
Again, I'm just throwing in my limited info so you don't run out first thing in the morning to get them and run into problems. I'm sure someone can provide some good advice

Thanks the rts does chase the fish sometimes but he hides a lot under his rock but for the most part he really hides a lot and all the fish get along

So you have all of these fish now? I'd watch them very closely. As they mature they are going to become aggressive and you'll either need a second much larger tank for some of the fish (e.g. Shark) or rehome some of them. It's usually better to ask PRIOR to purchasing.

Oh, you have all those fish now?! Yeah, that calls for some diligence. So much for that whole "stock slowly and lightly" thing several of us recommended after using the Stability. And usually it's best to post these lists before hand, not once the fish are swimming in the tank.
If you don't have these fish yet...ignore me
