Oscar passed... now what....?

[Trisnab25]

I have a 120 G that my Oscar grew up until it passed from what I assume was a bad case of constipation. Crud... Now I'm trying to decide what to put in there.

Current residents: 13 silver dollars, 1 Jack Dempsey, and 1 sailfin pleco.

What would you add to this tank with these current resident? I've toyed with the idea of arowana but seems like my tank may be on slight small side so arowana is out.

Ideas would be amazing.
Many thanks in advance for ideas :-D

Yes you are right about the Arowana.

Actually, I am not too sure what species of silver dollar I have. I brought them off eBay. Not a single loss.
Do you know of a good website where I can look up for silver dollar species information?

Would keep the inhabitants as is. No new fish. Got plenty of a bioload but I try never to overstock.

I wouldn't put anything else in, I think you're probably overstocked as it is with so many silver dollars.

 

[EntoStentor]

would be better if you could move the jack dempsey out, they don't really mix with silver dollars lol

I suspect that the JD may not appreciate the addition of any new cichlids to the tank.

I would agree 13 silver dollars, especially when large, will be a whole lot of mess. If you wanted to add anything I would cut the SD's down to more like 3-5. And yeah, tank too small for an arowana for sure.
