I am going to buy a 300G aquarium show tank....what do think about having:

Ornate bichir
Senegal bichir
arrowanna
large frontosa,
pacu

large angel
large blood parrot
large ghost knife

 

[Cichla dude]

Heres what I would do:
1 Silver Arowana
1 Sengal Bichir
1 ornate bichir
1 Pacu
2 frontusas
2 redhooks
1 angelfish
1 Blood parrot
( This is just my suggestion)
But for your question and stock you should be a-ok just watch out for the BGK.

I would subtract the pacu and add to the frontosas

What are redhooks?? I think I might leave my BGK in my 90 gallon anyway.

I agree in that situation...but I since I already own a baby Pacu I think I will keep him and transfer him over to the 300G to grow and then add more Frontosas to my 90 gallon AND the 300. Plus, I love my Pacu even though it isn't colourful or showy. Frontosa's have to my fish though - I can see where you are comming from.

a kind of silver dollar.

I would do-

Silver aro
6-8 frontosas
3 ornatas

The silver aro might look kinda outa place, since the ornatas and fronts are from tanganikya and the aros from south america...but it would still be a sweet tank
