This is my initial stock choice for my 60x40x40cm tank... 85ltr/18 UK gallons (obviously slightly less once plants, wood and substrate in):

Pair of Dwarf Gouramis
1 x Male and 2 x Female Guppies
4 x Peppered Corydoras
5 x Glowlight Tetras
1 x Bristlnose Catfish
1 x Cherry Shrimp (if there's room)


Too much for this size of tank?
 
As far as i know, your tank is fine as far as stocking goes currently although doesn't have much space left :thumbs: .
 
a good rule of thumb is this:

If you lined all your fish up end to end the total length should not excede the length of your tank.

This is not a strickt rule but is a good guide

Never heard that before. I'll have to figure that against the 1" per gallon guideline and see how they compare.
