180g stock list what you guys think

You already have fish that will be way too big for that tank, so you are not double checking enough before buying. One arowana will outgrow that tank, You didn't specify so I am assuming it's a silver, which will hit 4' and you hve two of them. Those are two of the largest species of bichirs.

That tank in the pic is the kind of tank I don't like. A bare, overcrowded show tank that is just a status symbol or show off, it is not designed for the fish but for the owner. You need to get the largest tank possible and then accept its limitations. Adding fish that will grealty outgrow it is not in the best interest of the fish and sets a bad example for the hobby. I said something about this in the 'post pics of your show tanks' thread, but this is exactly why I said something. People see those tanks and think it is alright, when it is not. I am sorry this forum set a bad example for you and that your fish are now at risk.

Please focus on finding proper homes for at least the arowanas, then on sticking to your limitations. The last thing that should happen is adding more fish, especially more that will outgrow the tank.

buddy like i said before i wont buy fish i cant house im starting my 180 and was asking no fish is at risk dont have the fish and wont cus now i understand the tanks to small

It's not the forum's fault if a person is too ignorant to:
A) Form their own opinion
B) Read the entire thread
C) Read multiple threads
D) Try to make informed decisions

This kind of thread is proof enough of the OP's unwillingness to consider putting actual thought into the tank. A simple google search reveals that some of those fish cannot turn around in a tank of the said dimensions... I wish people would use google more.

so your saying im ignorant for asking trying to get the facts stright so i wont make a mistake and put fish in a bad tank lol i dont have the fish so no fish got hurt lol you guys just jump the gun im just asking like i said

Hahahha u got flamed pretty bad. That was a massive stocklist for a 300 gallon! Let alone a 180 gallon. But it was smart to ask here. Ther are "some" smart ppl on here that give great advice. There may also be a few ppl here just waiting to pounce on someone! Maybe. Research is good and it seems like thats wht u r doing.
