Question
i was wondering if i could have 2 severums, a bala shark, pleco, and some cories in a 75 gallon, or if that would be overstocked?

Answer
Hi Carrie,
Two severums would be okay, but a bala shark would need a 125 gallon tank. He grows to 15 inches, and loves to swim. He is a schooling fish, and should be kept in groups of 5. Unfortunately a 75 gallon is too small for him. You could consider "Rainbow fish" they are beautiful, especially the red rainbow, but they too live in groups of 5. Little cory fish, you could put 6 in your tank because they love to play.
