ok heres my stock(400gal):
14 inch RB pacu
3 albino oscars (8,9,11 inch)
3 tiger oscars (6,12,13inch)
3 SA cichlids approx. 3-4 inch
1 6inch leporinus
1 5-6 inch red hook tin9foil barb
2 spotty catfish (3-4 inch)
2 fully grown cascadura (6 inch)
3 baby common pleco (i put 3 in but never saw them since :/ ?)
please note that i am willing to get rid of basically any fish (all i really want is 1tiger O , 1 albino O and if possible my pacu) growout tank may be used but will be small(30-40 gal)

they're in pretty good shape. just sold one of the 18"blacks yesterday. i might have thrown off the hierarchy because now they seem to be more fussy. just dumped the fx5 too after it leaked about 25 gal onto the floor. crappy design of the o-ring and motor. luckily it happened when i was home.
I have 7 silvers and want to get rid of two of the smaller ones. I was wondering how much my hierarchy would be effected when I did. They all get along great right now. I figured it would freak them out until they re-established their heirarchy. How much did you get for your black?
I just started raising aros yesterday after a few months of researching and wondering if i should get one.
Its roughly 1 ft long and i have it in a 55g. Waiting for winter to end then ill but him in my dads 250g which is housing his kois right now.

1- 6" silver, 1- 8" black , 1- 12" black in a 250 G tank. (X2) FX5's and they eat anything and everything.
