You've got to take pictures and videos of your 2000 and 1800 gallon tanks.

Definitely! Those setups sounds awesome! To the Captain... I disagree you need anywhere near a 1000 gallon for those fish aside from the dimensions that would be needed by the giraffe catfish. Do not start all that in an 80 gallon though.... The Oscar by himself would be good in the 80. I would focus on getting the 80 and getting it cycled

Ya I wouldnt start them all at once do to not enough space and faster growth rates so ill start of with either an oscar or ropefish.

i have a 9"-10" white tip wolf which is essentially the same as a red wolf fish (assuming we are talking about erythrinus) and I just recently moved him into a 135 south american/ central american cichlid community and he is doing fine. Not as much of a glass banger as he was when he was by himself in a 50g but still eating well, holding his ground and in overall good health. I think you will temporarily be okay as long as you do constant water changes and filter heavily, all of those fish are pretty messy fish.

+1 with oscarum tho. Just an oscar would be better, Oscars are super interactive and fun fish to own.
