75 Gallon Tank Stocking Advice

We have

1. Two large and 3 small platinum angelfish
2. Three 2.5 inch clown loaches
3. Five Boesmani Rainbowfish
4. Three swordtails
5. Five dwarf neon rainbowfish
6. Six glass catfish

Any ideas for additional fish? I thought about red line torpedo barbs but I'm a bit put off by the price. But I love schooling fish.

Any thoughts?

I'm taking a look at your stock and IMO you look pretty stocked. It may look like there is plenty of room because most of your fish are babies. Your Loaches will grow a foot long and the Angels are slow growers but will get approx. 6". Just your Loaches and Angels alone is approx. 66" of fish. That's based off of the 1 inch per gallon guideline. Your tank sounds wonderful though!

I agree with AlyeskaGirl. IMO, please keep an eye out on your Angels because they are different sizes. There are cases that bigger angels can pick on the smaller ones. Good luck!
