what would you recommend for a 125g? i have my tank, xp4, fx5 on the way, and going to build a stand. ill prolly set it up this fall when i find out if i have to move or not. im set on a red tiger mota and argentea but would like to add another one or two. would a cuban work in the mix?
 
i think you should get a jack dempsey,royal knife fish, green terror, a green sevrum, and maybe a red tail golden arowana
 
Clown Knife's and Arow's don't go in 125's unless you're growing them out.

As a fan of sticking with either South or Central Americans, I'd go with Centrals as they're more suited to your aggressive tastes, and go with a Male N. salvini, P. loiselli, and P. friedrichsthalii.

that is not a good idea, mostly for the reasons japes mentioned.

As to the original question, other than the cuban, I might add some smaller fish like neets or salvini just to mix it up a little
