Ok so my birthday is in may and I am looking to upgrade to 90 or above. 90 being the least I would upgrade to. What fish can I put in a 90 gallon I currently have a clown knife Jack Dempsey and Rafael cat and a Lima shovel nose. I want a jaguar cichlids but what fish would I have to et rid of I order to get 1.

Well considering the fish you already have your going to need at least a 180 minimum, and that's cutting corners as it is.
 
getting rid. of the clown knife will go a long way it wont take a real long time to outgrow a 90,everything else should be ok. the shovelnose ,some will say is too big ,but they really aren't too active ,so I think its ok. you could add a smaller convict size cichlid to the present mix WITHOUT the knife.but if you really want a jag ,get rid of the dempsey and theshovelnose and try the jag -raphie combo that COULD work in a 90 long term. either way if you arent upgrading do yourself a favor and unload the knife. good luck.
