My Stock Ideas... Am I Ok?

[Too Fast]

After a couple of years of keeping tropicals I have just upgraded my 135l tank to a 180l fluval vicenza. I have currently got 7 blue king tetra, 6 cherry barbs and 2 ancistus in the tank and was looking at adding to the stock levels. I went to my lfs to see what they have in stock, ask advice and ask what they thought about stocking levels. I would really like to add a chocolate zebra plec, 2x three spot gouramis and about 12-15 cardinnal tetra however I feel this may be too much for a 180l tank with a fluval 205 filter. Would this be too much (bearing in mind that the plec would only grow to about 10cm as they are dwarf)??? I have just posted in the plants section as I am finding the new tank to be alot brighter than the last so want to add to the plants to subdue the lighting as I feel the tank is too bright for what I have in mind. My other thought was to remove the smaller bit of bogwood (on the right of the pics to replace it with a bigger piece to give more cover for the plec and ancistrus. Would this help?

Any ideas or suggestions much appreciated.

Nice tank, my opinion is that you have plenty of room for the cardinal, they will shoal up nicley.

Thanks, I cut the bigger plants at the back down before I put them in so they need to mature again but overall I'm happy with the look. I'm just worried about putting too many fish in.
