what would be a good setup for a 240? 96x24x25
fish i was thinking about is one red devil,one buttikoferi,one barred midas and one jaguar.

what do you think?

If you don't wan't one big monster in there like a Dovvi or Umbee...........I'd go with a more relaxed tank like maybe P-bass and oscars...there's all kinds of options you could do with that size of tank but with the stocklist you are presenting is more then likely a timebomb. All it will take is for one of those monsters to go psycho and the whole tank will go down with it. The fish you listed are all super aggressive fish and rarely tolerate tankmates and IMO belong as solo specimens. GoodLuck
 
If you start with juvies you may work it out. the labiatum (red devil),& cintrinellum(midas) need to be the same sex or they'll hybridze.
 
Im in a Pbass mood so Id say pbass. 1 of ea if ya find em
 
I think your setup is fine how u planned.what filters are u using.
