You could easily triple the schools of platy and molly, but they will do that themselves if you give them a few weeks to breed lol. Same with the gupplies.

Regarding larger fish, rams are always a good addition, but you could do a school of rainbowfish (they get like double the size of mollies) or try for some Silver Dollars if you don't have a planted tank. You *could* also risk a ghost knife *MAYBE* but it will likely try to eat the other fish as it gets bigger. Just to clarify, you can't do the GF with the rams, they'd be in each others faces. I'd suggest the rams over the knife, and if your tank isn't planted a shoal (5-8) of silver dollars with a pair of bolivian rams would be a nice additions.
 
It's a cool mix for an 80g, but given all those live-bearers, this tank will likely be overpopulated with them in no time if you've got males and females in there.
