Default how do I make it look better?

My 60 gallon tank is still a mess >_> I just can't seem to find a layout that works with it. . .

Here's what I've got in it:

12 neon tetras, 1 harlequin rasbora(I guess 3 of them died and I just assumed I was seeing all of them, they never really schooled anyway) 4 white clouds, a lot of guppy fry(and a few adults) a bunch of cories, 5 khuli loaches, 1 clown pleco.

a good bit of wisteria, a bunch of wendtiis(which I love) some corkscrew vals(which I also really like, though they're slightly new and haven't adjusted to my tank quite yet) some chain sword, some water clover, some java fern on a small branch(which I'm trying to find a Good spot for >_> it's in the back left corner at the moment. . .) a few small unidentified crypts that can just go in with the others and blend, probably(they're near the front of the tank) a tiger lotus, 2 large-ish unidentified plants that are in the middle of the tank and look kinda like a sword of some sort, a couple sprigs of creeping jenny that I'm going possibly put in my terrarium, a lot of water penny(hydrocoytl?) that I couldn't find a place for(but want to keep) a few sprigs of ludwigia(the red one, probably going to put it into my 20 gallon tank)

And it looks like a huge mess >.< Should I take a lot of the plants out and just focus on a couple/few of them, or should I keep them all and try to make them fit together somehow? How do I make it look better?
