Stock a tank - wrong answers only!

What about a 40g breeder tank?

Well you see the 18 inch width means that an Oscar will be more than happy!
But a shoal of exodons would make it feel more comfortable - after all they are found together in the wild!

I am an oddball kind of guy. I would put in a bottom fish. Perhaps a few larger bichirs-18” does give some space! Congicus, Ornatippinis, and Koliba are all good options

Meh, I think an endli would give more options by way of tank mates…you can cycle through every time it eats something!

Let's put in a couple black piranhas to eat the bichirs! Like the little old lady who swallowed a fly eating chain.

I saw some 6'' arapaima gigas at my LFS last week for $199. I could start to grow one out in the 30.

Then you can put it in the 40 breeder. I think it should last quite a bit of time...it is wide!

Better than going into some poor sap’s 10…

I'd go with a group of iridescent in a 75. Maybe 6-8 of em.
