i think that's a good deal... ac110 is advertised for being good on a 110g but it's more likely 55gal. that it is good for. aro is too big for that, so go with GTs and the like.

i dont think african cichlids would go with a bichirs as far a water parameters go, but the cichlids are real hardy... i'm also biased towards biotope tanks.

i was just lookin for the species name. but theres an african tiger fish that only reaches 18 inches, and no its not a Hesphestues Oboe(spelled really bad) Or whatever.........

ill keep lookin...................

if it was me id do a species of large mormyrid, about 6 diff bichirs, an african knife , and some pretty big congo tetras liek 3"-4" to avoid gettin eaten by da bichirs, like 10....................
