Default Fish Compatibility

OK, I have searched all over the Internet and here and finally decided to just post myself what I am looking for. I recently started a 75 gallon tank and my fishless cycle is complete and needs fish. I know a bit of what I want so here are my thoughts so far...

6 Angel Fish
6 Cory Cats
1 Plecostomus

I am trying to find one more "group" of fish to add. Originally I wanted clown loaches but found out they get to large in size for my tank. I would like something colorful but I also want something that I can find easily without having to mail order them. Any thoughts?

If the angels are small you can have that many but once they start growing and pairing up you will have to get rid of 4 of them or the pair will beat the others to death. In a
75 gal you can add more cories to the group. Try to get all one kind or at least 5 of each kind if you want 2 groups. Rasbora's or some of the larger tetras would make a nice school.

I love porkchop rasboras - very attractive and very peaceful, no conflicts with other tank mates. They're also quick, so I imagine they'd get out of the angels' way quickly enough.
