Hey guys, I'm starting over with my 125 gallon tank, and trying to figure out how to stock it.

Just ordered a new fx6 for the tank, and I'm going to run my extra penguin 350 just cause I have nothing else to do with it, so I should have pretty solid filtration. It currently has a sand substrate. Other than that, I haven't planned out much, except I would like to include some plants (real or fake) driftwood, and some rocks, however nothing is really set in stone.

Ideally, I would like to make this a community tank with either a single larger CA/SA cichlid or possibly a pair. I have been trying to do as much research as possible, but I can't seem to come up with a stock list that I'm happy with AND will actually work with my setup.

One possiblity I've considered is:

2 x EBJD
5x Silver $
5x Clown Loach
1x BN Pleco

Could that work?

Thanks for any help guys, I really appreciate it!
 
No reason I couldn't work. If you ended up with 5 12" clowns it might be a bit cramped, but thats highly unlikely.

MODS THIS THREAD CAN BE DELETED, I'M GOING TO REPOST IN THE CORRECT FORUM
 
It would take years to get 12"+ loaches so you should be fine. Personally I'd put something that stays smaller then the silver $$.
