wow sev once again you are a huge help and the crazy thing is that they are two of the fish i considered the most. i was thinking like 5 of each cogo and empreror and mabe a few bleeding hearts with a bristle nose and my angel of course all in my 50g do you think that is overstocking

Yeah it sounds good to me, I would pass on the bleeding hearts and just upgrade the number in the group of each tetra to around 6-7. Just make sure you only add 3-4 at a time. And if you ever need me, just send me a pm like you did last time.

Beunos Aires Tetras would be another option. They look pretty cool IMO. But, mine are a bit roudy. Don't know about others, but they may nip at the angel's/angels' fins.

Just stay away from torpedo-shaped tetras. Any tetra that grows better than two inches would be safe with angelfish. Some of the species mentioned would be a danger to the angels. Fish like Lemon, Diamond and Rosy Tetra size would be about right, wouldn't bug the angels and grow too large to be considered food by the Cichlids.
