Hello all,
We have a 1000 gallon tank and are looking to start stocking it soon.
Here is our current thoughts for stocking, as well as a few questions.

Black Arowana x1
Tiger or Bumblebee Oscar x5
Zebrina Pike x1
Tiger Severum x7 (Will be added in large size)
Geophagus Winemilleri x5 (Will be added in large size)
Polypterus Endlicheri x1
Tigrinus Catfish x1

Not sure if there will still be room for anything else yet, If so please leave some suggestions!

As far as questions go, we currently have a Zebrina pike in a holding tank and a black Arowana in a holding tank both around 10”. We also have 5 tiger Oscar’s that are only about 3-3.5”, I’m guessing there too small to add in with other two guys yet?
 
Welcome to MFK!

It would be helpful to know the dimensions of your 1000 gallon tank in Length x Width x Height.

Is your tank glass, acrylic or something else?
 
It’s made out of wood and is a triangle shape (you more or less look down into to it, and there is two acrylic viewing panels on each side of the triangle.

it’s 2ft deep, 5ft wide in most of it, and 8ft wide at its widest area.
 
It's not 1000gal.
 
Welcome to mfk.

let’s see some pics/ video footage of this tank.

I’m always down for bass and rays. With a footprint like that you should be able to get all kinds of fun stock in there comfortably.
