So heres the community of fish for my 55g. I havent bought the tank yet so im just researching now. Are these fish compatible with each other and does it overstock?

Heres the community:
-3 angelus botias
-6 tetras that are not skirts
-1 gold/pearl/honey gourami (whichever is avaible at my lfs)
-1 veiltail angelfish
-6 skirt tetras
-4 ottos
-6 cories

I said 6 tetras that are not skirts because i was thinking of silver tip tetras. But knowing they are small, are they good with the gourami and angel? or is it too risky? if not then my second choice is to go with congo tetras.

Thank you!

srry just having fun with the font.
 
I think that looms like a good choice of fish. Really the only fish that give me flags are the angel and gourami. But we have a tank with them and all is well
 
You might have trouble with the ottos. Though they can be fed on commercial food items its no guarntee they will go for it.

My tank is well established and my ottos feed exclusively on the algae that grows on my decor. Ive tried algae wafers and they ignore them. I also tried a blanched slice of cucumber but they only nibbled on moved on.
