I am looking for some red fish to finish stocking my 46 gallon bowfront. I currently have 4 blue gouramis, 4 red wag platies, 1 angel, and 1 betta. I would like something more substantial (larger and prettier)than the platies to offset the blue gouramis. As a side note, does anyone think this tank is overstocked and if not how many more fish can I get without pushing it?
suggest me some fishies

You have alot of options. You could do some big sailfin mollies or basiclly what ever you want 
Also you may want to keep an eye on your gouramis and betta, since they are close relatives there is a good chance they'll fight. And I checked out your "imprisoned ichthyic friends(hehe)" stats and your common pleco will outgrow both your tanks too @ 2 foot.

I will post a picture of him, maybe you can tell me what species he is? Also, how long will it take him to get that size (2')?
I had my common in a 29 for about 8 months before he got to only one foot, then I found him a new home and he is currently at 18 inches. If you got one of the plecos that petstores seem to have millions then it is a common. If you post a pic I'm sure I or someone else can help you identify him.
Angel fish like to have others around an dthe can get to be a good size with some striking paterns
Are the blue gourami's dwarfs? If so you could get some flame dwarf gourami's. there not red but a pretty bright orange with blue dorsal fin. There's a pic of mine in my sig.
