Question on fry control

[Roger Mcfish]

Would an Oscar, sveni, red shoulder severum and large group of Columbian tetra helps with fry control in a 6ft tank?

Yes, but whose spawning?
I would add a Chocolate Cichlid (Hypselecara temporalis) before I added an Oscar.

I have a 3 inch chocolate growing out in a separate 75 gallon actually for a separate future bigger tank.

I wasn't thinking straight at all and my andinocara pulcher (NOT EBA) and green terror bred and female gt laid eggs. Smh and it's my fault. I've separated the acara to a separate tank and for the sake of the others, I sprinkled food in this larger tank to distract the female Green terror and removed the eggs and changed up the scenery.

Oscars and Sveni are good at eating fry, while Red Shoulder Severum also contributes. The Tetras won't hunt fry directly but their presence can help.
