currently i have a amazon theme with 1 huge stump in the middle with anubias growing all over it
i only want to keep my lima,and my clown knife but others are options
the ones that have a plus next to them are the ones i want and the ones with minus marks are the ones i have.
my filtration is 2 marineland emperor 400's and 1 fluval 405 and i plan on adding 2 aquaclear 70 or 110 powerheads
 
need to know which fish are acceptable and which are not before christmas..... anything helps
just need a little help thanks
 
Just from a quick glance at your list here's my opinion on a few that I see:

-1 reticulated ray (tanks too small)
-1 jardini (tanks too small and as far as I've read from other jardini keepers they can be very aggressive in overstocked tanks)
-1 Indo Dat (aren't they one of the two that require brackish water to thrive?..)
-1 hydrolycus scomberoides (tanks too small)
-1 lima shovelnose (tanks too small)
-1 Clown Knifefish (tank will be too small for a permanent resident)
 
ok so say i get rid of the black ghost knife,the leopard ctenopoma, the oscar, 2 loaches the 2 sun cats will that work?

I agree
 
but what if i get rid of everything except lima cat and clown knife
can i get an ornate bichir,scarlet leopard pleco, hydrolycus scomberoides, and teacup ray? i am gonna upgrade to a 180g in around 1 year
 
U can do this
1 lima cat
1 Senegal bichir or Ropefish
1 Black ghost knife
4 clown loach
