I am feeling a little bored with my 6 foot 125 gallon tank. I originally bought the tank for my big severum and angel fish, but they have all since died. I am now left with a few juvie angel fish, some gouramis, red tail shark and a bristlenose pleco. The tank is looking kind of bland and empty right now.

It is the main focus point of my living room and I feel like I need a change, but I am not sure to what. I have done the community tank thing, planted tank, cichlids. Not sure what to do next now. Anyone have any good suggestions?

tank is 72" X 19" X 24"
 
Native fish:orangethroat darters,Redfin pikerel,and other natives can be pretty cool,jonahs aquarium and Zimmerman fish have some cool stuff.

I was thinking of one of the two following with a tank that size:

First, a saltwater tank, either a reef tank with some fish or a FOWLR setup. Kind of depends on if you want to tuna sump or not.

Second, a native tank with sunfish. No need for a heater and they are very pretty fish.

Can you tell us if your tank is drilled or not, and what kind of filtration are you running/willing to run on the new setup?

Did they die of old age?
 
I'm in agreement with the Native fish tank. They are very nice looking when they get excited. Either that or a couple of Oscars :)
 
1000 neon tetras and a single Wolf fish

Yeah.
Yeah! But need to grow the wolf at least 2 feets long before adding Neon lol
Keep a grow out wolf vs 1000 Neon...It's a expensive investment become meals hahahaha
*Anyway, I saw similar setup 1 giant wolf and huge school of Neon on youtube. It's truly amazing scene.
