Can't decide what to get

[xTylerLairx]

Okay so I have a 125g with 2 common wolves and a boulengerella maculata. 2 Raphael's a few cichlids and 7 bala sharks. I want a more active predatory cat that can hang with those tank mates in that tank. What would be some good options?

not really predatory but you could do a synodontis species, they get big and are often as energetic as cories

Yeah I want something larger that perhaps eats feeder fish but won't outgrowth tank. What about a Lima?

Eventually the Lima will out grow a 125g, a 2ft deep tank like a 180g will be needed.

There is a spotted shovelnose cat i had one they are active and if i remember right only get about 1 ft. Pretty fish silver with black spots they can be hard to find, but would fit the bill just right.

I may be wrong, but I think sun catfish are pretty active as far as catfish go, and it won't outgrow your tank. Also maybe an ompok catfish would interest you, they seem to swim around a decent amount. Some pimelodids could work also... Like a four line pictus or something
