Recommend me some cats for an aggressive cichlid tank - 7ft long

[Boots]

84" x 24" 210 gallon long.

Gonna be an aggressive cichlid tank, red terror, red tiger, etc...

I'm really into doradids. I used to have a oxydoras niger but I broke all my tanks down when I went to college, and I gave him back to the LFS.

I want something that will not ever outgrow this tank.

I also used to have some clown loaches with my old niger,... I'm thinking I'd pick up some of them... but I'd much rather have a shoal of small doradids... like Platydoras costatus or Agamyxis pectinifrons. The only thing is,.. where the hell do I get fish like that?

can't help you one where to find them but you could try some doradids i wouldn't try clown loaches unless they were really big even then they might get killed you could also try a shoal of bigger pimelodus most move pretty fast there not the tuffest fish but there fast and in a tank that size there would be plenty of room to swim away my pimelodus blotchii works as a pretty good dither fish for my cichlids not good for the cat but it helps keep the cichlids from fighting
