Hi i have a

wish to stock with the following 450 litres. Approx W151xD61xH64cm

Gold Cichlid Thorichthys (Cichlasoma) aureus X2
Satanoperca daemon X4
Severuns X3 Males
Geophagus heckelii X2
Red head Geophagus Tapajos X5

And a Mixture of Tetras and rainbow fish.

Could you recomend any other fish.
 
IMO that's too much, and the T. aureus don't belong. Probably better to stock the tank with the severums, A. hechelii, and either the S. daemon or the orange head group (not both).
 
The Thorichthys are Central American while the rest of your list is SA, plus they might be a little too aggressive for the geos. Also I'd keep an eye on the Acarichthys heckelii since they can be aggressive as well, maybe bump their school up so one isn't getting picked on consistently. Good luck!!
 
You mean bump the school up of Satanoperca, i will proberly only keep one Heckelii i currently have him in a smaller tank with the 4 Satanoperca
