Hey guys I hate to keep bugging yall like this but I am about to start stocking my 40gallon long FW tank and I was wondering if that is enough room for.....

2-3 black veil angel. 2-3 gold veil angel, 2-3 Marble veil angel, 1 elegans cory, 2 false juli cory?

They should all get along fine right? if not tell me I don’t want to screw up lol my first time stoking fresh water tank.
 
Are those the options you want? Or are you saying that you want all of those fish? I'm not really sure what you mean there...

Anyway, I would go with 2 angels of whatever variety, then about 10 cories. Cories like groups and they are such funny fish that you just can't have enough of them. :)
 
Sorry yes it was just a list of the fish i wanted to get. i was going to pick only one of the sets of angels but all the cories.

Ok that helps though as far as the cories go should they all be the same type or can i mix and max 10 diferent types of cories?

I would do just 1 type of cory. You would be fine with 2 different types, 5 of each. Cories do best in groups of the same species so if you go with too many different kinds they will not be as happy.
 
you could have three angels in your tank, and IMO its best to have different colors rather than all of the same.
for the bottom, you could have 10 of one species of corydoras or two species of 5 individuals.
you might also want a school of tetras like lemons, diamonds, red eyes, etc. but no neons or cardinals.
 
Thank you guys so much that helps alot. I will be sure to post a pic of my tank after its stoked so u guys can see how it turned out :D

Im gonna go with 10 cories 5 Elegans Cory, 5 False Julii Cory and i will get one of each of the angels.

Ok thanks for the help yall cant wait to get it all stoked
