Hey guy i have an 80g(i think its 80) its 4ft wide 2 feet tall and 1.5f deep . i had 3 florida gars but i recently sold them because they where getting too large ffor the tank.

I want to stock it with some Preditory fish that wont get over a foot .

I was thinking about a fahaka puffer.

Can you guys give me some recommendations for some cool fish that wont get over a foot long
 
Erythinus erythinus (red hi-fin wolf fish)
Shoal of 30+ exodon paradoxus
Crenicichla pike like sveni or saxatilis

Nimbochromis fuscotaeniatus, Malawi hawk, jack Dempsey cichlid, longear sunfish, bluegill, green sunfish
That's all i got
 
The prettiest option would be a single female Parachromis mota or freddie. They should stay under 10". Males may get too big for that tank.

A single male GT would probably work.
 
I would go with some of the smaller knifefishes like gymnotus pedanopterus and a school of a smaller eartheater like biotodoma cupido or wavrini.
