Still seems like too much bio-load for all these fish (in each tank unless you get them very small), then again I only have expirence with about half your stock list. If I were you id just start slow, adding one fish at a time.

Who knows, maybe you'll change your mind again and want something else.

i do plan on adding 1-3 at a time and i plan on getting them 4-6 in. (so the sun cats and the lima don't eat everthing in the 90) also hopfully these will work:

90g:2 sun catfish a lima shovelnose a ompok catfish a silver datnoid a thin bar datnoid and a delhezi bichir

300g:an achara catfish a sailfin pictus a TSN a ornate bichir a endlicheri bichir a clown knife a papyrocranus afer and a 1 or 2 brycon AND/OR peacock bass MAYBE an arowana (jardini or silver)

also what have and have not had experience with
 
hello? also do you think a short bodied paroon shark can be added to the 300g also is there a kind of arowana that is compatible in the 300g
 
90g:2 suncats a lima shovelnose a ompok cat a silver datnoid a delhezi bichir and a thin bar datnoid

300g an achara cat a sailfin pictus a TSN 2 short bodied paroon sharks a ornate bichir a endlicheri bichir a clown knife a papyrocranus afer 2 brycon and peacock bass

now these both should work right?

well you don't have to worry about me getting a ray i can't get one (none are legal in AZ) also my 2 sun cats are 7 and 6 in. and the lima is 6 in. and i'am buying some polys that are 5-7 in.
also i did not know that a 12-16 in. lima can eat two bichirs that are 14-24 in. in size

I did say to get them at appropriate sizes so that the smaller ones will not get eaten. Also, fish eyes are larger than their mouths. This means nothing stops them from trying to eat fish larger than their mouths can fit. It is up to you to deter them by getting them at appropriate sizes with respect to each other and their growth rates.

90G: Dimension of the tank? What sizes are the dats? They are slow growers so the 90G can be considered a grow-out. As for the cats, well if the dats are small, the cats will have an expensive meal. This should be temporary for the dats?

300G: Too much bioload and too many catfish which are themselves bringing the bioload up. Ornates are known to go aggressive when they reach a certain size but who knows? You may find a tamed one. Peacock bass are always kept in groups. DO NOT get a Jardini. Once past 8", it will murder all your fish. A silver arowana can live for a long time in a 300G tank provided you lessen the fish you listed above (due to bioload, not space since cats are bottom dwellers).
 
well i do plan on well i do plan on getting one or two at a time

90g: 50in. L by 16in. W by 25in. T

and i do plan on getting the dats at a minimal five inches

90g:suncat:7in. suncat:6in. lima shovelnose:6in. silver dat:5in. thin bar dat:5.5in. delhezi bichir:5.5in. ompok cat:5in.

300g:sailfin pictus:4in. achara cat:4in. 2 brycon:4in. ornate bichir:4in. endlicheri bichir:4in. clown knife:4in. papyrocranus afer:4in. 2 SB paroon sharks:4in.

also i plan on getting fish only 1 or 2 at a time
 
Lots of planning of fantisizing, whichever. Get the 300g first, then the fish. Save yourself and the fish a lot of heartache
 
thanks but i was wanting to make sure this fish could go with that fish but without you guys i coul have got a jardini and it probably would have killed everyone
