That uncle thinks he's being nice and doesn't know he's building a problem for you. I'm w/ Esox & St. Clair; this needs to stop or he'll just make it worse.

You'll need to take some of them back anyway and there's no reason to wait until you have a problem so I'd do that now. Ask for credit and trade what you have in for something you want. That step will also help uncle understand that he needs to stop for a good reason. It's not always easy to stop someone that thinks they're being kind and doesn't know they're not.

Are you in the US?

Hello there thanks for advice I told my uncle that these fishes are not compatible and will outgrown the tank but he just say when they grow we'll plan whether to sell them or build new tank ,, btw he also say now he don't gonna add more , and also I don't think the aquarium shop owner take the fishes back in the same rate as I brought one blue mbuna chiclid when I was a beginner it cost me around 200 rupees (in dollar:- around 2 usd ) and I groom it for 4-5 months from 2 inch to 4-5 Inches and owner take it in 75 rupees only (.9 dollar ) becoz my tank was small for it ,

Rn I have around 10,000 rupees fishes in my big tank around 120 usd ,
I am from India
Actually I think here aquarium fish are cheaper as compare to USA

Actually the tetras would be great with a pair of severums, and even the loaches if you like them, but add a couple more, they're social fish. These 2 keep the tank more active and stay small -not adding much bioload. The problem with waiting until they all grow out is maintaining clean water for them to grow healthily. Even though severums and uaru are peaceful in a limited space they will be territorial and nip fins, chase other similar sized and shaped fish away and stress each other. Can make for ragged looking fish, and this will happen long before their full grown. Also keeping up on water changes will be critical or your fish may be stunted and unhealthy.

What do you say in getting some clown and other loaches in replacement of 2-3 severums and other fishes that you suggested to remove.

Let me know if 2 uarus, 3 or 2 severums , 1 black ghost, 2 yoyo loach and adding more like clown and others , 10 red eye tetras , 1 yellow flagtail , will work for me if yes I'll convence my uncle to replace other with loaches

If you already have two yoyos, and as loaches do better in groups, and even better in that yoyos are native to your land, why not get a bunch of yoyos instead of other loaches.

I haven't kept a lot of the fish on your list but as for loaches, the clowns will easily outgrow your tank. I had a 65 gal community tank I did a similar idea, 3 severums(1 always had nipped/ shredded tail and got rehomed) 2 yoyo loaches, 2 striata loaches, 2 polka dot loaches, 2 dojo loaches, 2 horseface loaches, a couple bristlenose plecos, and a raphael cat I never saw. The loaches never squabbled or were aggressive to each other but they also never played, swam, socialized with the other types, only the 2 of each kind would follow each other around. I liked the variety but a few years later I had a tank with 7 yoyos together among other fishes, and they were much more fun to watch inteact and nosing around the tank. It's your tank, get what makes you happy, and I get the appeal of a lot of these fishes, but this is how it worked when I tried it.
