Will Angelicus Botia Loaches Fit?

[onidrase]

Hey guys. I was thinking of adding more day-time movement to my aquarium's bottom floor, but I don't know if I have the room.

Stocking is as so (ignore the signature, it needs updating)
75 gallons, heavily decorated with driftwood, no plants
temperature 76F
pH 7.6
1 red spotted severum
1 green terror
10 buenos aires tetras (will go up to 20 as soon as the barbs and rainbows are rehomed)
3 raphael catfish
1 featherfin
1 bristlenose

I was thinking of getting a school of angelicus botia (at least, that's what they're labeled as at petsmart) but I don't know if I have the room with the raphaels and featherfin, even though those guys only come out at night hours. Would this be possible, or should I just leave the bottom floor as it sits? Thanks much.

If you didn't have the syno, I'd say go for it. Those guys get territorial and big.

I've seen more territorial behavior from the pleco than the catfish but he's still pretty small. Growing quickly, though. Got him at like an inch, now he's nearing 4"

Wait til he hits 8", then the fun begins.

I try to be...

The botia maybe ok, most have a tendency to fight back, with their little switchblades under those precious, innocent eyes.
