225 gal tank .. 6 x 2 x 2.5h

so far have a silver aro and two senegal bichirs

i am waiting for two florida gars and a motoro ray to come in. so i have the aro for the top .. the ray and bichirs for mainly the bottom. the gars for mainly top but throught the tank a bit too .. so i would like ideas for last members of this tank.

i really wanna go with a couple of pbass but not having the best luck getting them here so any other ideas? some mainly middle of the tank fish. active would be cool but not necesary. a couple of big would be cool but smaller schools would be cool too.

let me know what you guys are thinking. i want lotsss of ideas. i was thinknig silver dollars also but heard they wont go well with any high amount of light
 
Oh, the irony.

Right now i have the following fish in a 55 and all fish are but 2 are 2 inches and less. I have 1 gt, 1 jd, 1 jag, 1 gold sev, 1 rubberlip pleco, and 2 senegal bichirs. The jag will be traded in at about 5-7 inches and i may replace him with a salvini. I want to know if the stock will work for life in a 75 gallon and if not how big will i have to go?

since you don't think that you will get the peacock bass, i'd go with a school of 4 or 5 red hook silver dollars, rather than regular silver dollars. they will add some color and movement at the mid level. i've not heard anything about silver dollars having issues with lighting. if you can't get red hooks in your area, go with bala sharks or a few tinfoils.
 
What are you planning on upgrading to for the silver? This will give us an idea as your final set up.

i had looked at these as one option. think i would take orinos or something else first but still debating the mono's. looking for other options also if i dont go with the pbass. dunno the red hooks. have to check up on that. im not a fan of balas though. had 2x before.
