Dude, that is alot of fish! Sounds like a beautiful setup. I dont know if I would add more to it though. I guess it depends on how big those catfish and chiclids are. Will they fight with your new fish? Are you prepared to go to a even bigger tank and filter when all those guys start getting bigger on you? Its tough to say without seeing it all, but it sounds like a busy tank. Maybe its time to start tank #2! Good luck!
 
Just so you know the "white cloud tetra" is in fact the white cloud minnow. It is a cold water fish and doesn't like to be kept in water that is much above 74F or so. It does best in the high 60'sF. Plus it is also a schooling fish that likes to have at least 5 family members hanging around.

The CAE's will grow quite large and will eventually fight, at least that is what I understand. So the bottom of your tank might be overstocked as per territories.

Are the catfish cory catfish?
 
they are peppered cory cats...

it looks like a lot of fish since the list is so long, but it comes out to be 26...

my white clouds have been in my tank ever since after my initial cycle about 8 months ago, temp at 78. When I bought them from my LFS they were in a tank with some RedEye teras some angles and a mix of others. The 2 alone seem to be enjoying themselves.
