Do you think this is going to work?
Tank size 10X3X2.5 (L W D)
I have 3 fully grown motoro rays. 5 X silver dollars. 1 X 30cms Saratoga Leichardi. 1X30cms pecock bass. I currently have 40 cms silver arowana in 6X2X2 and i think it will outgrow the tank soon. If i move silver to my 10ft tank, you think it will be ok with Leichardi? I think Rays will be ok as they have not touch Leichardi for the past year and half 20151025_185730-1.jpg
 
i think it would would be ok together, silvers and leis are the nice ones out the aro species from my personal experience.

Good job appropriately housing silvers. If it doesn't work, you could always put the lei in the 180.
 
Having just two aros isn't a good idea, silvers and leis are fairly territorial. I don't think it'd be a good idea to put both in one tank, but you can try it. I agree with Owens, you can put the lei in the 180 however it will probably also out grow it eventually, but you should have a couple years before that happens.
