i have a 110gal aquarium. 60x18x23
and im planing to have 2 malasian gold arowana and 1 arapaima 1 red tail catfish , 1 shovel nose ,1 giant banded dragon fin , and 2 ocars or 2 giant gurami
 
Your tank is not suitable for any of the above named EXCEPT the two oscars. I would suggest a 10,000 gallon tank minimum for the named stocking. Good Luck!

=( so i need a bigger tank... what would be the minimum size of tank should i get to fit atleast 2 arowanas?

A 3 foot wide and 8 foot long tank min.
 
Maybe 8X2 for the Asians.....they only grow to 24 " or so.....The 8 x 3 for comfort.....the Arapamia would need a tank at least 4 times its eventual length! Do the math on that one!

For the crossbacks you need at least a 4ft x 2.5ft (width) x 2ft tank.
Arapaima need at least a 4m x 3m x 1m fibre glass tub or pond.
RTC, shovel nose need at least 2m x 1.5m x 1m fibreglass tub or pond.
To comm all of them together, I reckon you need at least a 6m x 3m pond.

Remember bro, the rtc, shovel nose and arapaima are fast growers. Easily can reach 2ft in a year. Think twice...
