I have a few fish in mind and I wanted to know what you guys thought would be the best combo of 2-3 tankmates. Heres the list of possibles.

Largemouth Bass
Peacock Bass
Spotted Gar
Hydrolycus Armatus
Silver Arowana
Redtail Catfish

Keep in mind they are to go with my 3 inch pacu and my 3 inch oscar!

Thanks in advance!
 
Depending on the size of your fish AND the size of your tank of course...

I'm going to continue with this post operating under the assumption that you're planning to get juveniles of similar size to your current fish and that you have a LARGE tank since you already have a pacu and an oscar... with that in mind, both of your bass choices would work together and with your current fish. In my experience the aro would work out as well. I currently have all of those fish in together with an oscar of similar size and everyone gets along just fine. I have an RTC, in a different tank. I love them, but would probably stay away from them as a choice at first because they grow so big so fast. If you feed your bass well, they'll grow fast too, but no where near as fast as an RTC. We had ours altogether for a while and it worked out fine at first, but as our RTC got bigger and bigger he began to look at our bass as dinner so we split them up. Good luck! Can't wait to see what you choose :)
