Hi! Ive been in the hobby now for about 6 weeks, apart from an unknown issue ive had with a platy fish, everythings been great!
I currently have a 75l setup which is pretty heavily planted with my 5 Female guppies, 3 male guppies, 1 Male Betta (hes a shy guy!), 2 Male dwarf gourami, 5 Female Plattys, 3 Male plattys, 3 Cory cats and a pleco.
Here they are

Firstly, i could use a bit of help with ID on the type of pleco i have. ( I was told a leopord pleco?) and the internet research i have done has me believing its a she?

So, i purchased a 180L tank, which i am currently cycling
https://ibb.co/X7w20rD
When i got the tank (The guy i bought it from delivered it for me) He added the surprise of a small 15L tank (which i will be using for a hospital tank) But this tank contained 2 x Male Sailfin mollies (theyre quite Large, 3" perhaps)
Here they are

and another pleco....
(please note, i was pretty upset about the conditions of these fish in this small tank, it was way too small and very dirty....)
So this pleco is also large. I have no idea what type it is, but again, the internet searching i have done leads me to think its a she?

So, i have moved the sailfins and the large pleco into the 180 for now, to help cycle things. But seeing the mollys being very playful and obviously much prefering this environment to there cramped one, ive kindof got a little attached to them.
Here is the new setup:

So.... I have read about having 2x plecos being a big NONO! in common plecos.... the smaller kinds seem to be fine together? And especially multiple females? Would they be Ok in a tank this size?
Also, the 2 sailfins, with them being much larger then my other community fish.... how would they react to my other guys, or further more my guys to them?
Any advice here is appretiated, and i thank you for the time spent taking a look here
