I have (2) zebra danios, (2) Glofish, (1) Commen pleco, and (1) Yellow African Cichlid. I have them in a ten gallon tank, with a filter, heater set to 78 degrees. I gave three hideouts which my Yellow African Cichlid owns them all. But I just want to know it this enviorment is okay for them. I know the pleco and cichlid will grow and need more room over time. But for right know with them all still pretty small is this okay?

Truethfully, the only happy fish in that tank right now are the glowfish. Common pleccos grow to be OVER a foot long! No matter how small you buy them, thye still grow up and if you don't rehome him to a petstore or a friends 75gall then he will have growth stunts and not survive over a year.
Zebra danios are to hyper and they need big spaces, they also like schools, so you would need to get more wich would overstock your tank. The african cichlid will get to bi for that tank unfortunatly....
If you like your current fish theem try switching it to this...
-2 glofish
-6 silvertip tetras (stimulate danios)
-2 otto cats (stimulate plecco)
-1 sunset dwarf gourmi (stimulate cichlid)
Your current fish are not going to be healthy, as your bioload is to high. Please consider your fish's needs and rehome or upgrade your tank. I know its hard, but you can research everything I said to double check):
I'm sorry

Im just going to be blunt and honest.
Cichlid and Pleco will become a big problem in a 10 gal.
Cichlids- Agressive, grow big, territorial, bad descion
Pleco- Grow way to big! I have one that is 12 inches!
Honestly, find a home for the yellow cichlid and the pleco and add a couple guppies, or mollies, or tetras.
