G'day
So I'm considering buying a 200 gallon tank for stocking primarily a few large cichlids or possibly other predatory fish. I plan on raising them from as young as i can find them all the way to adulthood in this tank.
I've read read Oscars have the most personality so I'm hoping for a stocking scheme that allows for one of them. If there are other fish with similar personality/intelligence please let me know and perhaps the oscar will be substituted for something else.
Considered tank mates:
Jack dempsy
Jaguar
Texas
Green terror
Salvini
Severum
Bichirs
Any idea how many of these can be put together?
Which ones will work together?
What's a relatively safe combination?
A risky combination?
A combination that definitely won't work and will certainly end in a bloodbath?
Feel free to suggest other fish as well. My heart isn't fully set on any particular combination, but as mentioned earlier about the oscar, i would like at least one fish that feels somewhat personable.
Any input is appreciated. Thank you.
