ok so far 2 5in Oscars and 5 jewel cichlids. im looking to add a mono peacock bass and one more big aggressive fish, any ideas, its an 80gallon 2ft by 2ft by 4ft. id appreciate any opinions or ideas on what i should stock the tank with. Thanks
 
Is this a grow out, or permanent tank? If it's not a grow out, you are already over capacity for that tank. Definitely don't add a pbass or anything else for that matter
 
Yeah, sounds like you need a bigger tank before thinking of adding any more fish. I'd say you need atleast a 180g for just the fish you have now. IMO
 
its a grow out tank, and everything is under 5 inches for now, im just waiting to snag a monster tank off craigslist or somthing, but still any ideas ?
 
I would wait to get a bigger tank. The way the thread is worded it appears you are asking what to stock in the 80 gallon. Imo its not logical to ask what to stock in the 80 gallon if its only a growout with no info on what size the permanent tank will be.
 
Not considering the tank size, jewels will make good feeders for a pbass
