Do not keep mollies with other freshwater fish. They are brackish water fish.

be careful of the type of pleco you get. some can get to big for a 80 gallon, let alone and 60

I haven't seen one on this site, but I'd really like a chart of fish compatability. I like the whole suggested combo idea, but a chart would be helpful in matching up fish mot mentioned here.
