400g Popped, Fish for New 125g..?

[h0ckeyfreek20]

With the decision not to get a new monster tank, I am left with my 125 'grow-out' tank.


I would like it to be slightly over-stocked to give a more lively impression.
Fluval fx5, (3) Eheim 2217's, and 36watt UV sterilizer to accommodate over-stocking.


I want to keep it simple and colorful. No more aggressive or large fish except for ONE. My 11" Flowerhorn.
He has been with a community of fish all his life and never killed anything *knock on wood*


Currently in 125
-Flowerhorn
-(13) Clown Loaches
-Ringtail Pike
-(3) Senegal Bichirs
-(2) Delhezi Bichirs
-Bristle-nose Pleco

What Other fish Can i get? I really like odd-balls and ugly fish like Endlis, Aros, and other ancients I had in my 400g. Just can't get as large

I recently put 7 silver dollars around 4-5 inches in my 150 and it gave the tank exactly what it needed. There is a lot more movement and I love the way as well as everybody who looks at my tank loves the way they school around. I have 4 regular ones and 3 red hook.

You would be surprised what live plants and a bit of current can do ! Don't need a lot either. The plants moving and two or three nice fish... Love tanks like that.

It seems like your floor space is a little crowded. I think you need a middle or top swimmer.

Small 2.5" - 7"

I was actually thinking about a school of silver dollars for the middle and a school of elephant noses for the bottom

Can't do a planted tank atm, although they are awesome.

You would think that, but it actually seems empty. Flowerhorn is middle/top. Thinking about silver dollars, elephant noses, Geos, rope fish, or something ugly on the bottom
