Hello , I'm just getting back into the hobby . picked up a 210 gal. tank 2 Marineland C-530 filters. I want to put in a Silver Arowana, black Pacu, Giraffe Cat & albino sailfin Pleco . Do I have enough room for a pair of Clown Loaches ? I'll need some suggestions about feeding and everything else anyone can offer . This is my first post and I'm excited about this hobby I love it !!!!

What in the world?.... No idea why you posted this on someone else's For Sale thread (unless it's because of your under 5 post count in which case read the threads and get 5 post and make your own thread bro) under marketplace but you need to go post this in the correct section. Probably General Aquarium Discussion would be your best bet since you have a mix of fish you're trying to stock.

As far as your planned stock:
Arowana- I'd say no. Minimum size for an Aro would be 220g and that's, as stated, Minimum. I personally think I 210g is simply too small for one, specially with other large stock.
Black Pacu- (!?) No way. a 210g is incredibly too small for a Pacu bud. 500g is too small for a Pacu. You need around a 1k gallon tank to properly house a Pacu.
African Giraffe Catfish- They can get up to 3' long so I would probably lean away from them but they can be happy in a 210g.... Maybe...
Sailfin Pleco- Sure, he'll be fine in a 210g np.
2 Clown Loach- (?) Clown Loach is a schooling fish. They like to be in large schools so I'd definitely do more than just a pair, but a school of 6-8 will be fine in a 210g np. (if they don't get eaten by the catfish...)
