[garobsessed15]

My dads getting a 800 gallon soon and left it up to me to choose the stock...he wants colorful looking fish...any suggestion?

Discus!

I can't even begin to imagine what 800 gallons worth of discus would cost... but they sure would be cool.

 

[garobsessed15]

[philfreenode]

a good sized school of clown loaches for the bottom

maybe datnoids for middle?

 

[bettafish15]

Angelfish? I hear they're much cheaper...

 

[Morledzep]

peacock bass, silver arowana, various bichers and couple various knifefish.

 

[garobsessed15]

the only thing is that i gotta put a RTCxTSN in there and smaller fish would probably get eaten!

 

[Morledzep]

ok, so peacock bass, silver arowana and the RTCxTSN, and keep the bichers and the knifefish in a separate 300 gallon.
