Hey guys, I am in the midst of planning out a 125g tank. The tank is going to be planted and I really am not going to have a large bioload in it. It's going to have a pair of pike cichlids (not sure on the species yet), a jaguar cichlid, and a cat and that's probably it. What kind of cat would y'all reccomend? I'd like it to be a South American cat (keep the the whole SA biotope.) I haven't been in the freshwater scene for a while (been doing only salt for the last 10 years or so) and I just have the freshwater itch again. Thanks for the help.

Sorry couldn't help it!!!
oK FINE... a Persian???... Siamese?... how about one of those ugly little furless things?
OK well if your looking for a catFISH... then I'd have to say Lima Shovelnose?

It would take some time for it to outgrow that... Standard foot print should be 18" from front to back...By time it out grows that you'll want a bigger tank anyway 
A Colombian Shark Catfish (Hexanematichthys seemanni) gets to be a foot so it wouldn't outgrow your 125. They are Central American but I guess they've been found all over. They have great personalities too
