Hey guys, I've run into some decision-making problems regarding polys in my 55g and 120g. Just wanted some opinions on what I should do. Some background info, in the 120g I have 2x dels, 1x ornate, 1x weeksii, 1x moke, 1x severum, 1x salvini, 1x SAL, 1x african knifefish, and 1x Crenicichla sp. "Venezuela". In the 55g, I have a del and moke growing out, as well as 5x botia helodes, 1x goldhead compressiceps, and some cherry barbs and congo tetras. However, I was going to sell some of the fish in the 120g to make some more room, definitely the pike, and maybe the sev as well.

So, I have a few options of what to do in terms of polys. The first would be to just keep going as planned and move the growouts into the 120g as planned and keep the # of polys the same.

However, I'll be honest, I really want some new polys, haha. Which brings us to option two. Move the bigger of the mokes into the 55g and keep the smaller in there, to enable myself to get lower jaw polys in the 120g, since I can't with the mokes in there. They grow too slow, and honestly I fear that the ornate might even grow too fast and eat the one in there now. With this option, I'd probably get a lap or two, maybe endlis, who knows.

The third option would be to do the same as option one, except I'd also add some upperjaws in the 120g, maybe either a teug or some palmas sp.

Of course, there's also the option to keep everything the way it is now.
 
Just realized that one and four are the same, haha. Ignoring that, nobody has any suggestions?
 
#3. New fish that are big. Duh.

Oh and also

do this.
2x dels, 1x ornate, 1x weeksii, 1x moke, 1x severum, 1x SAL, 1x african knifefish, and add more bichir. what is a SAL?
 
SAL= South American Lungfish. And I'm not getting rid of the salvini, maybe the severum. Definitely the pike though.

ok
 
Thanks for the votes everyone, it's looking like option 3 is the favorite. If anyone who votes/has voted could give any reasons why, that would also be appreciated.
