Albino oscar x1
Green Terror x1
Managuense x1
Pictus cat x1

and also wanted something for the bottom of the tank, may be like a catfish to help clean up the extra food from the messy oscar, no plecos plz since they make a lot of bio load

anyone else has ideas???

Pictus are nice but I wouldn't get one of your oscar is already big or it likes to eat other fish. If you haven't gotten one then I would get a big pictus.

i it would be fine because he would grow up around it. Heres one of mine.

do they do better in groups of their own kind? if so how many should i get

Bichir are sweet bottom dwellers. Maybe Bullhead catfish of Sun catfish.

They like to school a bit when they are are small but then they get territorial with their own kind as they get older.

Don't bull heads get to big for a 125?

how about a tiger shovel nose or a red tailed cat they probely will out grow your tank but they would be fine for a while my tiger oscar and my RTxTSN are best pals the oscar sleeps next to the RTxTSN BUT

TSN and RTC will most definitely outgrow that tank! If you want something along those lines I would suggest a Lima catfish. Same look but much smaller.
