Hello folks. Finally going to put up a video of the tank now I've been able to gather all the species I've been looking for. The arapaima's about to head off to his new home, the indoor 1200 gal pond at our store, so I figured I might as well get the vid while he's still in there.

-2 Green aros
-Black aro
-African aro
-Arapaima
-SA Lungfish
-Bowfin
-2 Florida gar
-Ornate polypterus
-Clown Knife

That was one of the smallest ones, got it at the grocery store! Fortunately a male too...
 
It's Schultz Aquatic Plant potting substrate, it's a light clay, finer than gravel but not nearly as fine as sand.
 
About 24". Very slow growing for a while as he would eat nothing but live feeders. Finally, when he got big enough to go in with the big fish, he started eating pellets and began growing like a weed.
