180 Gallons!!??

Hello I'm vary exited on getting a new tank and need some stocking ideas! I already have 4 Angel fish, 2 Yoyo loaches, 1 RoseLine shark,1Bn pleco and 2 Oto. So what are some fish I should add to the mix? I also want my angelfish to be taken in to prime consideration as there the center peace of my tank.

Instead of Otos I would get a senegalus bichir or commonly sold "Dino" bichir or "albino" bichir. They get to 8-10 inches long and a docile while if something tiny goes Infront of it's mouth it might have a quick taste haha. But there a good addition

Up the shark numbers and oto numbers although they may be at risk of the larger fish like the angels

I would consider adding more loaches and not going with the otos at all. The pleco is an aggressive feeder that would limit the food supply for the otos.
