If you are referring to an intex swimming pool style set up there are a few factors you should think about.
Longevity. I have personally never used these to keep fish because I don't trust that it won't develop a leak eventually. I doubt they are designed to be set up for 5+ years.
Another limitation is you cannot monitor the health of your fish effectively only from above.
The pleco and tigershovelnose have barbs that will probably eventually pierce the liner.
You will need a strong lid for the arowana or a net over the top
I also think long term the shovelnose will eat the Oscars.
If you are dead set on using an intex pool, I would line it twice with a thick rubber liner or extra protection. Best of luck
