A 6' 150 is a great tank size. I actually had mine setup as all-males last year. Had many of the species you mention in there and they did fine.

Once you get it set up, you can certainly add a bunch of fish to that tank (so long as you keep up with water changes and filtration).

Cheers.

Tough to say. Easy answer is a heck of a lot when they're small and less when their full-grown. If you keep up with water changes (we're talking 50%-75% weekly), you could keep 15-20 adult males of the flavors that you've listed.

Welcome to CC
Sounds like you plan to upgrade to some pretty big tanks.
