Hi, I'm looking to restock my 6' x 2' x 2.5' tank which currently has African cichlids in it. I want a aggressive or semi-aggressive tank with very active, engaging, interesting fish. I would like some plecostomus, catfish, and larger cichlids like 10-14 inches. I am interested in these fish but am not sure of the dynamic of aggression and compatibility between them as I have little experience with aggressive communities.
Rafael cat
Pictus cat
Tinfoil barbs (not sure about these as they aren't even as/ca but people say they are great with large cichlids)
Gold Nugget Pleco
Mango Pleco
Midas cichlid
Sajica cichlid
Any other suggestions are welcome and I'm not sure if my plecos and catfish are large enough to put up with some larger cichlids. Also bio load is not really an issue as I have a 40 gallon sump with 10+ times turnover rate
-Thanks
