200gallon stock tips please

[oscar777]

Setting up a 200 gallon 760L 183cm x 60cm x 70cm aquarium for some cichlids, I already have a 3inch festae and 2.5inch green terror in another tank waiting for this one to be set up and I was thinking of getting an oscar and a jack dempsey too. Does that sound alright? Im open to suggestions of other cichlids instead so please feel free to tell me what you think I'm always learning. Im thinking about keeping them for ever at the moment so yea please give me some advice.
Thanks

you can get about 3 severums. They look nice. That's all I can think of right now.

Well I wanted to keep the festae and green terror so anything in addition to that is what I'm after.

 

[Aweshade9]

I was saying you could add those to the list, but the festae may be too aggressive to the severums. You could add 3 oscars and a freddy cichlid.

you're saying a festae, a green terror and 3 oscars could fit permanently in a 200 gallon? thats crazy haha really?

 

[Aweshade9]

what are the dimensions? You listed four, and there are only three different dimensions in a tank.

 

[oscar777]

183cm x 60cm x 70cm the other was litres instead of gallons for people who don't know gallons

 

[oscar777]

so basically 6ft x 2ft x 2.3ft

Cool, and yes I would think that 3 oscars a festae and a green terrer would fit. 2 oscars would be better stocking wise, but I THINK 3 oscars would be okay.

Okay well I was pretty keen on a jack Dempsey as well so does that mean an oscar and a jack Dempsey would be fine? I just don't want too many oscars due to their insane consumption of food haha I've owned one before and they are pigs. Thanks for your help so far btw these quick replys are great !
