125 gallon what kind of fish.

[bigcfish]

What are some good fish to keep in a 125g. I would like to have a arowana but its not big enough.

polypterus delhezi,polypterus senegalus,polypterus retropinnis

depends what you want, a large cichlid, a catfish tank, bichirs, some kind of community - possibilities are endless

People will give you some good suggestions if you give some idea of what you are interested in. There are a bunch of possibilities.

Depends what you like, community fish or predatory fish. A saltwater tank would be baddass though with some lionfish.

Sorry....thats why I said arowana. Something semi-aggressive to aggressive. With a couple of large fish and a bottom feeder witch I have. Something other than run of the mill cichlids. (nothing against cichlids. I have several in other tanks.)

Lung fish <3

Id imagine you'd have lots of choices. Me personally, I think a black ghost knife would be cool. The bigger bichirs would also be pretty sweet.

A jag or an oscar, that's what I would do.

I just picked up a 125. I'm moving my gold ck in there (though eventually Willy will need a larger tank), so that wouldn't be permanent. I'm moving my red devil in there as well (trying to, hopefully the ck and rd won't try to kill each other). I also have a green sev that I'm going to throw into that mix and pray all goes well with the synodontis I have.

My stocking is just because of the fish I have. Some oscars (2) would be cool, with a cat or two at the bottom. Brown knifes, ghost knifes, bichirs, synodontis cats, severums, jardini aro (super aggressive though from what I've read), black aro (correct me if I'm wrong, I'm no aro expert ). Your possiblilities aren't endless, but vast. What type of fish are you against putting in there? You seem to like the arowana but a silver would get too big. Geophagus are a nice fish to keep, beautiful. Gotta throw a few "likes" out there.
