depends on the dimensions possibly a gar if the dimensions are right. The arowana would outgrow the tank as will the peacock bass. By tiger fish i think you mean datnoids they should fit in there if the dimensions are right. Filtration depends on the fish. If you wanted more than adequate filtration i would go with an eheim 2260. That will cost about $400-$500.

Sump it up or one of the aforemtnioned canister, you planning on getting a bigger tank? If its long and wide the fish mentioned will work, and if you do plan on ever getting a bigger tank the arowana will work

Most lilkely a wet dry filter or sumps.I am not very sure about canisters as those i heard only filter to 75 gallons but maybe a higher priced fluval ones, but i still think diy wet dry and sumps can filter your tank really good and some of the fish you keep are messy eaters all the more reason you need a good efficent filter
