Crowded?

Would you consider this crowded for a 55 gallon tank?:
2 yellow labs
1 red zebra
2 convict cichlids, one big, one small
one tetra
one synodontis eupterus

there is no agression at all, and the 3 african cichlids are pretty small. The filter is an emperor 400. Thanks

I wouldn't consider it overcrowded but I would consider it a bad mix.

I would definitely get rid of the convicts and tetra. Or get rid of the labs and red zebra.
They have different water requirements and shouldn't be kept together.
