150 Stocking Suggestions

[dk66gt]

I'm looking at a 150gal acrylic tank, dims are 60" x 24" x 24". I currently have a Trimac, Ornate Bicher and Delhezi Bicher living happily in a 72gal. I've been thinking about how to stock the 150gal and can't decide. Would you just move everyone over to the 150gal and let them enjoy the room? Maybe find a female for my Trimac and keep a pair with the Polys in there? Or add some cichlids and save the Trimac for the last addition?

My Trimaci is your typical glass banging jerk that hates everyone and every thing....well except for his Poly buddies. A

ny suggestions would be most appreciated.

Here's a clip of the Trimac to give you an idea...

it depends on what you want,breeding is great to see,but will be a challenge with his size,are you prepared to divide the tank? also if you get eggs in that size tank,i would think the pair would kill the birchers.maybe you could try adding male convicts? not going to be easy with his aggression/size.maybe more non-cichlid tankmates,SD's are tough
