i have been looking up fish and compatabilities for going in the same tank. i have found a few which can go in the tank im getting soon which is a 180 litre tank. the fish are:

Shark Catfish X2
Silver Shark X3
Angel Fish X2
Clown Barb X4

I have been on a website which says my guide stocking level is 216CM and with those fish it takes up 191CM, but i was wondering which order should i put them in?

Cheers
 
Will the tank be cycled? It's something you need to think about before getting to the adding fish stage :)
Loads of links on the pinned topic here.

Hi, I'm not sure what site you have used but from that info its safe to say its not very good i'm afraid,

Shark Catfish are a Brackish fish that will quickly die if kept in freshwater for long periods of time,
The silver Sharks will easily reach sizes of 9-13" and need at the very least a 300L

The Angels and Clown barbs are fine although you may want to up the number of barbs to at least 6 as they can become quite aggressive if kept in too small a group
 

You can certainly try although in most cases, like in the wild, the Angelfish will eat the neons,

u see if i get an angel fish that limits me to what fish i get! What other fish could i get?

to go with Angelfish or other fish generally?

fish that would be ok in your 180L with Angels would be Pearl Gouramis, Swordtails, Larger Tetras like Blue Colombians, Black Phantoms, Corydoras, smaller cichlids like Keyholes, apistos, Rams etc ...

Yes they'd be fine, any tetra that is 2" or larger will be fine, Congos are one of the biggest species and will get to around 4"
