piranhas, oscar
 
ok i know forget the pirhana can a 6 inch silver arowana , a 4 inch dinosaur eel and a 3 inch FW moray eel go into my 400gal ?? if needed i can put together growout tanks for everyone and i am willing to rehome 2 of the albino oscars and i also have another 400 gal i really just wold like to know if i can accomodate those extra fish considering that i rehome 2 albino oscars (not nessacarily life long because i have another 400 gal.) so questions:
do i need to rehome any oscars?
do i need a grow out tank for the additions ** arowana, moray eel, dinosaur eel**??
do i need a 400 gal now or later ????

Okay let me get this straight - you have 2x 400gal water tanks (with the lids cut off I take it ?) currently 4x Albino O's, 1x 14" O's, 4 x Misc. Cichlids???, and a 16" Pacu AND you want to add a 6" Arrow, 3" Dino Eel - Bichir ??, 4" FW Moray.

Your playing with some pretty large volumes of water, with the exception being the Pacu which could reck havoc on the other fish when it gets larger, 400 gal should support your current stock and your additions save the Moray. I may be mistaken but I thought FW Morays were Brackish water fish. However, I would grow out the additions 1st. esp. if your keeping the Pacu.
 
mmmmk will do (it is only 3 SA cichlids just thought i'd say) so what size growout tank would be sufficent for a 6" aro ; and the eels ?? (4" FW moray & 3" bichir) or should they "growout" seperately
 
i gave up on all of those ideas just thought i'd update my current stock.
in the 400 gal: 3 albino O's(8-10inch)
1 -12 inch tiger O
1 -13 in tiger O
1 -5 inch tiger O
2 spotted catfish - one 7 inch one 4 inch (dunno proper name)
1 leporinus 6 inch
4 baby pleco 2 inch when i bought em about 4 months ago(havent see them since:/)
3 SA cichlids 4-5 inch
13 inch pacu
2 full grown cascadura (5inch)

2- 25 gal tanks(barrels in half): 2 newly bought hope to be pairs convicts (females 1.5 inch, males 2.5 inch)

my dads 400 gal : about 3 dozen red and white fan tail goldfish 1.5-3 inch range & about 14 koi/butterfly koi (2-3.5 inch) & 2 baby pleco
