My in-laws are moving in and I have to get rid of one of my big tanks. Trying to decide which fish I should keep for my 120 gallon. I want to keep them all but I know I can't. Let me know what would be good to keep. Here is what I have between the two tanks:

4 Geophagus Mirabilis20170813_161841.jpg 20170813_172705.jpg 20170813_161733.jpg 20170813_161841.jpg 20170813_172705.jpg 20170813_161733.jpg
3 Uaru
5 Altum angels
6 juvie Red Head Tapajos
10 lemon tetras
3 green phantom plecos
12 corydoras
1 juvenile Chocolate cichlid
2 Threadfin Acara

The Geophagus Mirabilis are staying for sure. I love them!! Let me know what you would keep in there. I don't want the tank to be overstocked! I love all the fish so it is difficult for me. Any suggestions appreciated.

I would say re-home the Tapajos and the chocolate cichlid and keep the rest. But it's really juts personal preference, as all fish have similar requirements, so keep whichever ones are your favorite and I would say re-home one or two species of cichlid

keep it simple to do water changes, reduce competition in the bottom area, and have some dithers

This, especially if it is only a 4'x2'x2' 120. The rest are going to get too large to fit in along with the geos.
