I got a steal on a 120 gallon acrylic (48" x 24" x 24"). I will post a build thread in the setup and filtration subforum that will have all of my progress and pics. None of the below pics are mine, just for reference.
For now, I am looking for some suggestions or opinions on the stock list I have in mind. I am planning a mostly SA/Amazonian theme. This tank will be a growout for all of the below until the 240 gets set up but that will be at least a year from now. (no room, new house or wife has to come first)
Here is what I am thinking of so far:
(x4) Geophagus Surinamensis

(x4) Geophagus Read Head Tapajo

(x2) Uaru Amphiacanthoides

(x2) Crenicichla Notophthalmus "Dwarf Pike" - LFS has a male/female pair on hold for me.

(x1) L240 Leporacanthicus Galaxias Pleco - already own this one and it's 5".

- I don't have room for both species of Geophagus, which would you choose?
- Gert the Uaru A. or something else? If so what?
- Think the L240 (has a tase for Bristlenose bllod) be OK with the Pictus? Pictus is the only fish my wife picked out...
- Add or take anything away?
