I purchased a red tail cat, tiger shovelnose cat, silver arrowana, gold nugget pleco, gold mango pleco, flowerhorn, knifefish, and my redtail cat outgrew most all of them and ate the plecos I am very worried about the rest.

What I would like my tank to have in it is a redtail cat, knifefish, tiger shovelnose, pacu, peacock bass, 2 oscars, and a large pleco.
Does this sound like it will work. Im gonna sell my redtail and get a smaller one but will he just outgrow them again?

270 gallon. I am concerned with the growth rate of the redtail cat being faster than the others. My tiger shovelnose is 4 /12 inches redtail is 7 1/2 inches knife is 5 inches flowerhorn 3 inches.
If I sell my current redtail and buy a 2 1/2 inch redtail is he gonna outgrow my other fish???
 
yes the new rtc will out grow the other fishes if its been well fed, they grow waaay too fast. Why don't you just keep all the other fishes for now and feed them so they can all grow to a good size.... THEN go buy a medium size rtc that will not fit in any of your other fishes mouths.
