I think its over stocked, but i'll let you all be the judge. If any fish stand out and you think would be a bad addition to the tank. Please speak up. any USEful and constructive criticism is appreciated. If this isnt OS I would like to add some fast moving fish to the tank

2 green severums
1 rainbow cichlid
1 jack dempsey
1 texas cichlid
1green terror
1pike cichlid
1 pictus cat
1 clown knife
1 livingstoni
2 zonatus
 
I have a home for the CK once he outgrows it, and the rainbow i wont get.Thanks, what about other stuff to be added
 
other than the clown knife situation, which everyone mentioned, the cichlid mix may work, but keep an eye on the more aggressive types picking on the sevs and rainbows, unless you remove them or add more aggressive species instead.
 
The severums could have the right mental state to keep themselves safe but be careful. There shouldnt be too much aggression as basic overstocking rules will reduce the need to fight quite a bit. Keep a sharp eye out.
 
Great, these are way better responses then I expected. I'm not going to get the Rainbow, I plan on buying all of these fish at once, very small and growing them out. Allowing them to grow together. I maybe possibly wait on the more aggressive ones, buy them later on once the other fish have grown some, introducing them to larger fish,they might be lower on the totem pole. Are there any Dithers I could add to bring some life to the tank, and what about bottom dwellers.
 
i got a big gibby in my 150, a great bottom dweller that is also quite impressive. although i dont think a 125 will hold a gibby for life, mines only 2ish years old and already 18+" and still growing.
