All of the above will work. The gymnos, maybe not because of the cooling off period. Otherwise, just make sure they're big enough that the Aro won't turn them into food.

I keep Uaru, Orangeheads, and Leucosticta with my black Aro. Have for about 18 months with no problems, knock wood. When I get the big tank set up the Orangeheads are moving elsewhere and I'll replace them with Abalios (which get bigger). Might add a Severum or two as well.
