id like at least 4 fish in there

if you want 4 fish, then don't do parachromis, you would only be able to have a pair of one speices in there.

it really depends on what you like
 
I'm working on plans for a 125g stand or a stand that can handle even a 180g or really any 6 foot tank.

I'm going to be in the same boat but have some fish allready.

My plans for fish are as follows. I would like to have the tank for only a couple fish but I believe I need to spread the aggresion out.

1 GT (about 6-7"s)
1 JD (big....maybe 8 or even 9"s)
2 Severums(I hope they are tough enough)
A few male convicts
2 texas.....gotta make sure they don't form a breeding pair.
1 Oscar......I have never had an oscar so I figure why not if I go for a 180 instead of the 125g.
 
I have an Oscar, P.Loisellei and a Female Jaguar in my 125.

I'm thinking of adding something else too. But i dont know what.
I had a JD. But he was really boring. Just sat in his log and only came out if he thought it was feeding time. Not much fun to watch.
 
put ur devils in there...and maybe a catfish like a marble pim
