Hi all..

I just picked up a 150gallon tank.. and after i fix up the stand/remodel it.. I'm going to start stocking it up!

I was thinking of using two types of filtration that i already have..

1 AC 110 & Eheim 2234 ... ac110 is a good 110 gallon filter and 2234 is a 60 gallon filter.... I might also invest in a sponge filter....

Current fish i have:

1 Silver Arowana at 12" (for sure)

Ideas of fish to add:

ocellaris P bass
orino Pbass
Bichir (abino?)
Red Severums
Archer Fish
Spotted Gar

Fish i have & potential additions to the 150 gallon.. note ( Will only add 1 or 2 in there)

1 Faded Golden Platinum FH at 4" (Yellow and Pink)
1 Tiger Oscar at 8"
1 Jack Dempsey at 4"

So anyone please help out? I have no idea how whats is good with a 150gallon.. its my first big upgrade from 60 gallon.. kind of a noob in big monster tanks.. and even at 150gallon is a medium size monster tank...
 
please? little help?
 
i would add the one oscar, maybe 3 sevs and a bichir or two... thatd be a nice stock
 
I really like the combo of Archer fish with Arowanas.
 
i thought about doing

1 silver Arowana

With 4 archer fish

but i sorta fell in love with Pbass now and i dunno if P bass and Archer fish will mix well...
 
There are some archer species that are full FW, not brackish. They come into the country every now and then, but the majority of the archers available are T. jaculatrix which do require mid range brackish water for optimal health, which a Arowana definitly would not like.
 
the archers will get eaten by that aro...the growth rate doesn't compare to that of aros...as for the other fish, I like everything listed except for the pbass and gar for that size tank
 
Whats an ideal tank size for 1 Pbass??
