How many more fish?

[J3azy]

Here is my 75G with 1 Large AC sponge filter and 1 Tidal 110 HOB. I have 10 sterbi corydoras and 4 geophagus red head tapajos. How many electric blue acaras can I add without overstocking?

I’d be comfortable adding two pairs in there plus some schooling dither fish

I personally wouldn't add anymore cichlids because once either paired off your going to have problems in a aquarium that size. I would add a group of tetra.

If you want to add an eba I’d just add 1 to prevent pairs. Although eba’s are not really aggressive. But somewhere I’ve heard tapejos do better with 5 or more. Spreads the same species aggression out better. You could easily do rainbows as well. Small group of boesemani or praecox would be good. Or like @Tlindsey says larger tetras. Possibly congos. Would make an interesting tank.

I was definitely hoping to add some EBAs, might have to limit that to 1, and some tetras. Hmm, I have some thinking to do. Might need another 75G lol. Thanks for all the feedback!

Geos are pretty docile but once they get older and start nesting your aquarium will be subject to… their design choices. 
 

You can probably add a couple pairs of EBA without any hassle. I might add some more sight breaks and caves though. And be aware that geos are messy so filter maintenance regime will have to be more frequent.
