dang... I'm over here with a 30g with 20g sump and only have 2 clownfish and a fire shrimp :D with a damsel and brittle star in my sump :P

idk if I'd say you're over stocked but prolly at the limit for sure
 
I would say at the limit also, but that also depends IF you are is setup for that much.
 
If your nutrients are under control and your fish are not behaving aggressively due to lack of territories, then you are fine.
 
Most of the fish are nano tank fish, but 10 fish in a 45 gallon seems like pushing the limits. With good husbandry and luck, it could work.
