Ok my tank is 7x2x31". It willbe running in the next month or so as I have to reseal it again. But, I was already thinking about the stocking and want a nice variety. I already have 2 Kelberi pbass, and 5 Geophagus altifrons on the way, and I already have an Oscar, 3 large bala sharks, and a Florida gar. I have other tanks I am going to let the bass and geos grow out in. But, what else could I add? I have a friend going to sell me his large gold Severum around 11" and my old Pearsei I sold him 6 months ago. I was thinking maybe a Boccourti and a polleni? And I've always wanted a female RTM but didn't know if one would work cause of aggression with my other stock. Obviously I know all these fish won't last forever in the265 with each other, but, I have a 120, 75, and a 40 breeder too so I have plenty of space for everyone. Just looking for thoughts or suggestions, thanks!

I'm not sure how the sev is going to work out. I had a really bulky & mean sev, killed everything I put him with. I tried him in a tank of viejas & he held his own w/ the aggression, but was really outmatched by their speed at feeding time. I think you'll run into the same with the pbass.
 
I'm not that worried about the Severum I have a 120 with just Severums and I could always put him in there. I'm just trying to find some oddball central/South Americans to put with my bass to make a nice community
