Potential 50 Gallon Stock Plan

[RCShevalier]

I have a fifty gallon that I have been considering stocking with the following fish:

4 Swordtails (1 male, 3 female)
6 Panda Cories
1 Bristlenose Pleco
1 Dwarf Gourami
2 Angelfish

Will these fish be compatible? Is the aquarium overstocked, or is there the potential for a couple more fish?

Appreciate any thoughts or recommendations.

Not overstocked- understocked in fact. The only question is- what will you do if the angelfish pair?

I would cross that bridge if it were to happen. That would be pretty neat though so I'd look into re-housing the other fish.

I have 2 paired Angels in my community tank, but they have never actually raised the eggs. They lay them and then eat them the next day. If they sense any threat (as they may, I have other big fish) they just eat the eggs. You wouldn't have to worry about it. I also don't take my livebarers' fry out, I let the bigger fish eat them.
