So I just bought a new 60 gallon, and am currently in the cycling process, so I want to get my stocking solid. This is a possibility:
3-5 angelfish
1 bristlenose pleco
5 harlequin rasboras
5 black skirt tetras
5 peppered cory cats
6 silver hatchetfish
1 dwarf gourami (I already own him, so he has to stay in the plan)

Some questions:
How many angels should I get? Is three enough to spread out the aggression, or should I go for 4 or 5?
Will the harlequin rasboras get eaten when the angels get big?
Should I raise the numbers of the schools on the tetras, hatchetfish, and rasboras? Will my dwarf gourami do okay with this stock?
Sorry there's so many questions, I just have a lot to ask. Any advice would be great! Thanks a lot!

If you add the angels at the same time I wouldn't worry about aggression. You could add more schooling fish if you'd like to. The rasboras should be safe from the angelfish.
 
Thanks. I think might add a few more hatchets or tetras then.
