Could I keep these fish in a 55 gallon together? I plan to heavily plant the tank, and use floating plants. Here's the list:

Panda Cory - 8
Cardinal Tetra - 12
Amano Shrimp - 2
Dwarf Cockatoo Apistogramma - 2
Blue King Tetra - 9
Bolivian Ram - 4
Marble Hatchetfish - 12
 

Also, as a side note, I will be using dark sand, if that matters.

I know I'm kind of overstocking, but that's why I'm here on the forums.

Edit: Also, is there anything else I need? Any fish, cleaners, etc.?

 

Cheers!

(And Happy Thanksgiving, if you're reading this on the day it was posted 😛)

The stocking seems fine for the most part. the only tweeks I would make would be,

6 Panda Corys

get the apistogramma in the same sex (so 2 females or 2 males). Females tend to be smaller. but the males tend to be more colorful. If you don't care about the sex, get the females.

7 Hatchet Fish

Keep the water tempeture at 80 degrees farenheit, Bolivian Rams like warm water
