The greens up to 18", given enough room, the black ghost will reach 25" or so. Info from wikipedia, so dont spear me for incorrect info. and yes, i mean literally spear me ==>

otherwise, I'm not the best at stoccking, but for something as big as 344 gallons, this looks reasonable. Shame on you if you dont post pictures after set up

Yeah that setup would be fine, but, the bleeding hearts could easily end up as food for the oscar and severums

thats what my first thought was.. once the Oscar and Severums get big enough they would probably eat the tetras and cories

Green Knives will grow pretty big, because they are naturally from a tropical country, and are possibly found in lakes and rivers, so most of the tropical fishes I've researched.

Severums: Well it depends on what types you have, there are turquoise, green, and well that's what I've really heard of..

They are very easy going sometimes, and they are found mainly in South America, in lakes, rivers, and probably creeks.

Although I have seen some Severums in the local rivers I've seen here in Colombia. Although I've seen more cichlids, and angels instead.

Tank buddies for Severums: They usually prefer to be with other Severums, or other cichlids, and possibly oscars. The only time you could put regular Angelfishes with them is if the angels are larger, and I'd only add a severum in if it is going to be able to help prevent the angel from attacking all of your other tank mate buddies.

plecostomus fishes should be fine in your tank, they can grow up to about 25" max.
