So I have a 55 gallon fish tank with:

1 platinum angel
6 cardinal tetras
6 harlequin rasbora
2 clown plecos
2 red tailed sharks(putting those in a 36 gallon)
And 6 ghost shrimp

Are there any other gouramis I could possibly put in here with more than one of them?
 
I have LED lighting on my tanks (Finnex) and I grow crypts, anubias, Java fern, Java moss and duckweed like mad. Anubias and Java fern grow best tied to driftwood and don't need strong lighting.

With regard to your fish selection, I have a couple of concerns. Everywhere I have read states that it is impossible to keep 2 RTS in the same tank. Also, your angelfish will probably get large enough to eat/kill your cardinals and shrimp.
 
I know, I have that angel in that tank for the moment but am gonna buy more angels of different kinds to put in a 36 gallon
 
Update: I just bought 4 medium amazon swords and 4 jungle Val and 1 red striped eartheater
