In a 240 litre tank, a gold nugget plec,a green phantom plec,1 blue acara,1 fire mouth,and a green terror, would they go together though
You'd get away with the plecos and GT I reckon, not so much the acara and firemouth, you'd possible get interbreeding with the acara, if its a male then it'll get demolished, along with the firemouth

I'm not sure if this has already been said, being I haven't read the entire thread, but a Texas would eat some of those smaller fish. I would recommend Firemouths only if you get smaller cichlids. If I were you I would just stick to small cichlids so you can have Firemouths. They're great fish.

People that overstock tanks irritate me. Anyways to the point both jags and dovii grow too large for a 240 litre
If you remotely know what your doing, this isnt an issue... Only the losers got a real problem with it... mad fanboys...

What? Overstocking can often lead to issues no matter how experienced you are

A growout?
What you cant take the fish out? If your hands are broken and you cant change water thats one thing..
I dunno about you but I can raise a fish in a 5 gallon bucket, but I dont choose to.
