How big will silver dollars get? Clown loaches would be cool too! How big do the loaches get?

Slow growers. Kinda pricey for big ones. But I hear they get to 6" the first year and get to around 12" some bigger. Here's some info http://www.loaches.com/species-index/clown-loach-chromobotia-macracanthus

I never liked them. But now that I read what the site said makes me want to try some... but why when I can still get more bichirs.

 

[Joshmac8]

exactly! I've been looking for delhezi's recently but no luck.....maybe thinking about adding a motoro but not sure....

2 dels are next on my list. after that no more till i get a 240 set up then more bichirs and a few other datnoid species... not a schooling fish but ever though of datnoids? they are perfect tankmates for everything you have listed.

redhooks would be nice. I have 4 in my 150 and they look really good. skittish though.

Red hook silvers ftw. Giant danio's wouldnt be half bad either, the aro would have a hard time getting them becuase they are incredibly fast swimmers.

I remember when i was younger we had giant danios and we could NEVER catch them with a net lol
