Ideas for a new tank

[scrup]

Well I have got some fish that will be growing large enough to warrant a big tank, planning on getting something along the lines of a 200+ wide tank. (will try for a 500, but not holding my breath)


Looking mostly for non super aggressive (my mbuna take care of that aspect for me just fine).

So far the only members are going to be a small school of bala sharks, a BP and a L001 pleco.


Any input on what else could work? I am relatively new to the large fish world, so I am open to almost anything.


I could always throw my goldfish in I suppose.


Actually that might be kinda neat...hmm.

School of Clown Loaches. Beautiful fish with great personalities and very non aggressive.

Of course!

Was thinking a leporinus would fit in nicely. Perhaps some tin foil barbs, and a few ropefish, and a BGK...

Any others? Looking to keep them under 2' if I can (I know ropefish are longer)

Maybe some red hooks........

an oscar? or some firemouths or a butti?

Definite possibility. Shame I can't rescue the giant gourami thats been sitting at the LFS for years in a 100G...poor guy cant turn without smooshing his face on the glass.

I would not be against an oscar or smaller CA/SA cichlid, pending they were nice enough to play well with others.
