In the process of making an aquascape for my 60G/227L tank, but I have been thinking about what to stock the tank with and want some opinions as these might not work together. I have done some research so I don't think these will be a problem, but I'm not quite sure. So here is what I'm thinking:

5 Marble Veil Angels
3 Dwarf Gouramis
5 Albino Cory Cats

My question now is, should I stock up on like 5-6 Otocinclus or just get a Pleco to help with the algae once it starts to grow. I'm not sure if the Angels will chase the Otos around or not. Also, I'm not quite sure as to which Pleco if that is better than the Otos

Thank you in advance for the help
 
I'm not familiar with Otos and Pleco, but will give you a free bump to see if anyone else has suggestions. Is the 60G tank kind of tall to keep the Angels happy? I like your stocking list. Dwarf Gourami and Cory are awesome.

Yes the 60G will keep them happy. Dimensions are 48"x12"x24". Also I'm not going with the Gouramis anymore, but I'm going to add a school of tetras, and I'm going with a BN pleco over the Otos. The 6 Albino Corries are staying as well. I'm only sticking with 3 angels as I've read everywhere that once they pair off, they can be very territorial. So I'm kind of hoping to get 3 female angels, but we'll see what happens.
