I did some fish moving recently, i got my 120 with a few fish but they are the larger fish and 1 convict... Stocklist is 1 4 inch oscar fish 1 4 inch flowerhorn fish 1 3 inch jack dempsey 1 2 inch convict and 1 4 inch tinfol barb and a 5 inch seganal birchir and i am soon adding a common pleco... Do you think i should add a other oscar, if not what cichlid do you have in mind???? I like oscars and they are cheap but i also like virity in my aquriums but i will probibly have to oprder anytghing besides an oscar... I was thinkin maybe a other birchir...

Oh i forgot, i have an xp3 canister and a penguin 350 runing on my 120 gallon 48x24x24...
 
Your fish seem to be growing very slow for fast growing cichlids. You have no room for anything else. A 4 foot tank is a 4 foot tank and doesn't matter if its a little wider. It doesn't allow you to put more fish in it. In a 4 foot 120 you should raise a show fish and that only. Oscars aren't show fish, fh are a waste, and it takes a very pure strain of jack dempsey to get a show worthy one.

My 75 is home to a single 3 inch F1 hogaboomorum. My other 2 were removed cuz he wants to be alone. Do yourself a favor and go that route with ur 120. A single beautiful fish can bring a lot more joy to you and interest from others than a tank full of fish with no room to swim.
