Need Opinions on my 125gal tank stocking
Hey everyone, so i'm looking for others thoughts on how to stock my 125gal FW tank, i was all about catfish when i first started this tank but after seeing how big they grew i traded them off, i still have a Hybrid RTC/Tiger Shovelnose that is about 10 inches that will be re-located to a much larger tank soon but other than that I am open to all ideas on different types of fish so see what i have stocked and let me know your opinions on which direction i should go stocking wise!

1 12-13inch Clown knife (rescue)
1 10 inch Female black Upside Down Asian catfish
1 8inch orange/tiger Oscar
3 10 inch Ropefish
1 9 inch Polypterus Endlicheri
1 8 inch Polypterus Ornatipinnis

-------------------------------------------------

Also in a 55 gal grow tank i have

2 4inch EBJDs that i plan to grow even more and add to the 125gal

I have a local pet store that will take any of my fish that i need re-homed and they will give me a decent penny back for my pets, so any ideas that involve removing a fish or two i'm not opposed to! Thanks All!​
 
The birchirs and oscar were raised from babies with the ropefish in my 55gal tank and i have never had any problems with them being thought of as food before, i do have a few side tanks i can always put them into just in case anything does happen, i used to love danios in my old community tanks. I just feel if i added a whole school of giant danios, my fish would mistake them for gold/feeder fish and gobble them all up. Thanks for the input though!
 
I have some that are full grown like 3 inch plus so they don't get eaten. I have ropes with my big bichir but they are 1.5 feet long

Yeah sadly my Clown Knife would think they were just goldfish or even better, he has eaten 5inch + gold feeders so its gotta have a little more size to it if anything is going to survive in the tank with him, i'm interested in anything really, other than crazy over aggressive cichlid species, or large growing catfish species. Let me know if anything comes to mind!
