stocking ideas for a 210

[brittlebonez]

I have a 210 (6ft x 2ft x2ft) currently I have a 4 inch oscar, a firemouth chiclid, a green terror, and a fire eel, and a jack Dempsey thats on the way looking to stock this tank and make it look full

filtration - FX6, 2. 75g sponge filters, will be added later this week 2 75g hang on the back filters and I have 2 wavemakers.

I have a 55g growing out a single Oscar that will be added to the 210 hes around an inch so i have a tank for new young fish to grow!
any suggestions on what i should get would be nice I'm new to cichlids got this tank back in January loving the southamerican cichlids. I know that people recommend that i dont stock more so i wont have to do as many waterchanges i honestly dont mind it.

A Jaguar would be a good addition

a 6x2x2 is a 180, could you mean a 7x2x2? When all those fish are fully grown it will be very full. I would say add some Silver Dollars as dithers and that's it.

I agree. It may not look it now, but those fish will grow fast. Then you will have issues regarding territory and aggression.
Also, FM and JD are Central American cichlids not SA.

Still it's pretty tight for space already. Oscars and Fire Eels get huge and the JD and GT aren't exactly small either. The FM will probably just be bullied. As I said previously, Silver dollars would be the best option
