stocking my 125g

[vlcek81]

As of right now my baby oscar (in my 55g atm) is going in their and i want to get a jaguar cichlid.

So
Oscar x1
Manguense x1


Then i was thinking of atleast 1 more larger fish. The ones that have caught my eye for Green terror, Jack dempsey, Midas, Red devil, Black ghost knife, and this one fish called leporinus fasciatus

I don't know about a BGK, it could work with a oscar if the oscar isn't too feisty and if the BGK is about twice the oscar's size. But with a jag I doubt a BGK will work, just from what I have heard about them as I don't have hands on exprience with jags. I think your best bet with those choices is either the JD or the Midas.

Well... good luck. My roomate at the time had a 125 with an oscar and jag and the jag totally dominated the tank and harassed the oscar endlessly.

awww im hoping to get one around the same size of my oscar and put them into the 125 at the same time, so its new to both of them

Most fish that grow a nuchal hump won't grow a very large one if they are not the dominant fish in the tank. This is especially true for green terrors and with a jag in the tank I'd say the chances would be very slim that the GT would be at the top of the chain of command so I don't think you'd really have to worry about that.

i had a oscar and a jag and a jd in the same tank the did well, then i get a midas..........
he was 2 inches the when he hit the 7" mark he dominated every thing he was like a flowerhorn..
