fish combo in a 125

Scratch silver arowana mate, sorry but they need, in my opinion a tank of atleast 200 gallons. I would go for a SA/CA cichlid community.
if you get a silver arow, get a baby one and grow it out in the 125, but later get a larger tank........ my silver arow that i had grew from 3" to 18" in about 6-7 months.......
what other fish do you like? south american/central american cichlids? characins (i.e. silverdollars)? etc.
how about this, research other fish you like and i (and probably other people) will tell you if they can or cannot go with a silver arow.

Snakeheadman.. more info needed please.. 125 long, high.. ? An arowana will outgrow that tank pretty soon, what are your eventual plans? you have a 200/300 gallon tank in the offing? With big aggressive fish you need to be looking as far ahead as you can be..
It's really good to be excited by the monster fishies, but you gotta know what you will end up with, rather than just being one of the shmucks who take a fish back to the LFS and say "I never knew it was going to get this big!"... with monster fish comes a monster responsibility.. forward planning is the key
Good luck with whatever you got going on, bro.

big mean fish?? in a 125 you have tons of options.
red devils, jags, flowerhorns, texas, dempseys, severums, black belts
i know you said you want a group, however just a single or a pair of some of the bigger cichlids would be great in your 125

Ummm stingray? In a 125 g tank? I'm no expert, but that sounds like no space to a creature of that possible size... hey, if I'm wrong then no probs, but I'm really rather unconfident that a stingray would live longer than a month in a 125 Gallon tank...
