well im hopefully getting a 150 soon so i wanna think about what im going to stocking list. the 150 is going to replace my 75 so my 75 stock will carry over to the 150. which is an oscar 2 pbass a firemouth and 3 pictus cats. i know the pbass will get to big so im going to get ride of them at the 10" mark. anyways i would to get a trimac, JD, GT, red terror or a sev. or maybe a combination of these. also maybe a few more firemouths and i really like salvinis. so tell me what you guys think.


Thanks
 
Forget the Trimac.

Go with the:
Oscar
Firemouth
3 Pictus cats
JD
Some sort of large plec.
Im not sure on the festae, but would a female be ok??? Aggresion wise.
GT
Salvini
 
Thats less of a community tank than it is a barrio tank...you might get lucky but personally I'd expect an eventual "serf" war to break out.

Are you getting them baby sized or grown?

It will work when they're babies and as they grow you'll have to thin out their numbers a little bit. For example, the Trimac may need his own space.
 
well the oscar is about 5-6" already, the firemouth is like 4". but everything else would be baby
 
im woried about the oscar picking on everything else if they are babies. ill have to look for larger ones. there some 3-4" red terrors at the lfs but idk if i could keep one of those. i would like to get more smaller fish than a couple big ones. to make the tank look fuller
 
would could i add to this instead of a trimac?
