i just got a 112 gallon tank and i need help picking tank mates. i have a 9 in clown knife and a 10 in florida gar. what other monsters can i place in there?

thanks

maybe a silver thats slightly larger or a similarly sized jardini arowana?

or how about a couple bichirs?

got to love the ancients.

The gar alone will outgrow that tank in 2 years. How about smaller fish, less bioload?

Silver dollars are pretty cool schooling predators
or oscars, some types of mild sharks...

Clown knife will need at least a 300 when it matures. Gar can get large also.

x2 - save your money and get a bigger tank

well i guess i might need a 300 in 2 years hehe...that or i might hafta find someone with a 300 that wants a gar, or maybe i shoudl return him...lots to consider. also ive read online that a clown can be housed in a 100 gallon. hmm silver dollars sounds interesting and not really into oscars.
thanks for the advice guys...

hey guys just filled the 112 gallon with water. i noticed the front is bowing by 1/8 of an inch. the glass is 1/2 inch thick. should i be worried?
the tank is a hagen 5x2x1.5

please help

I think a little bowing is normal. I'm assumming that you tank is level and on a proper stand.

is there centerbracing on that tank?
