3 silver sharks
3 guppies
4 tetras
5 clown barbs
2 algae eaters

What size tank do you have? You will probably need a 125g+ if you plan on keep them all for their lives. The silver sharks, if you mean Bala sharks, can get up to 16" and need LOTS of swimming space.

The plecostomus, if they are the common ones can get even bigger.

I wouldn't add a fm to the tank. It would probably be ok in a large tank as the fm isn't an aggro cichlid but they can be to community fish at times, especially in tight quarters.

If you can provide details of your tank and parameters, eg size, pH, GH, KH, etc, then it will be of great assistance in helping you.

As an aside, I had 2 Kribs in with a couple of Firemouths, and the Kribs kept attacking the FMs. In the end I had to trade in the Kribs to save the Firemouths.

It would also be better for you if this was posted in the New World Cichlids section. You might be able to ask one of the Mods to do this for you
